You mean the run capacitor may be the problem, but the motor runs very well when the pressure is below 5bar

yes, even at load below 5 to 6 bar it's fineSo under no load, it's fine.
Hence the problem.
OkClearly a motor problem.
Can you borrow / buy another ?
My name is Mubiru Baker, I work with Atlascopco. I work on screw compressors, SF compressors and ZT compressors. It's even my first time to work on piston compressors.so I will be assisting anyone with problems of mostly atlascocpco compressors since I am very experienced in them.It be nice if you told us a bit about yourself and what you do.
We're always curious, loads of knowledge available on this forum.
And Uganda must be different to our lives in Northern Europe.
I'm in North Western France, trying to set up a machine workshop.

Good man.My name is Mubiru Baker, I work with Atlascopco. I work on screw compressors, SF compressors and ZT compressors. It's even my first time to work on piston compressors.so I will be assisting anyone with problems of mostly atlascocpco compressors since I am very experienced in them.
But this piston compressor has given me hard time to work on.Good man.
I will try it out and I seeWell, frankly sounds like the motor is overheating and pulling too many amps. It's probably the motor, but unlikely the compressor.
Try swapping the motor over is my thoughts.
I changed the compressor and I replaced it with a new oneUnless....
Something is locking up in the compressor head under pressure?
My bets the motor.
Well, it's not that then.I changed the compressor and I replaced it with a new one
but early morning, it can run up-to 10barClearly the motor as @Seadog said...
