    What to do if there is slow or no fluid flow in Graco Measuring Instruments?
    • R
      Regina HamiltonAug 13, 2025
      If your Graco Measuring Instruments are experiencing slow or no fluid flow, consider the following: * The filter might be clogged: Relieve the pressure and then clean or replace the filter. Order Filter Kit 255885 if needed. * The pump pressure might be low: Increase the pump pressure. * The twist lock nozzle may not be fully open: Aim the nozzle into a bucket or rag and fully open it. Avoid triggering the meter when the nozzle is closed. If you accidentally trigger the meter with the nozzle closed, point the nozzle into a waste bucket and open the nozzle to relieve pressure and expel built-up fluid. * The shut-off valve may not be fully open: Fully open the shut-off valve. * Foreign material might be jammed in the meter housing: Contact your Graco distributor for assistance.

      If the displayed dispensed amount is not accurate on your Graco Measuring Instruments, it might be that the unit needs calibration for the fluid you're dispensing. Calibrate the meter for the specific fluid to resolve this issue.

      If your Graco Measuring Instruments unit doesn't stop dispensing when the preset amount is reached, the issue might stem from several causes: 1. The valve may be dirty, or the seals are defective: Clean the valve or replace the valve seal. 2. The battery might be low: Replace the batteries. 3. The solenoid might not be functioning (Preset only): Replace the solenoid.
