    We have a 25HP Joy TwistAir compressor. Lately it is pulling high amps like it is loading hard. Should only pull around 25-31…it is climbing to over 50 before shut down. What is causing this.
    Have change the oil seperator. Still does it. Can it be the pump. What is causing this. Please help.

    One possible cause is the electrical service. Check to see if the wiring connections are good, check the fuses for paryially open condition.

    I don’t know the compressors Joy, but give a glance in the oil filter and in the valvule that controls the circulation of the oil (if to exist). Maybe, the problem is the bearings of the compressor unit. It’s due the low quality of the oil.
