How to troubleshoot Nordson 25B failing to siphon material?
- PpetersenkimberlySep 8, 2025
If your Nordson Water Pump isn't siphoning coating material, start by checking the siphon strainer screen, rod, and hose for blockages and clean them if necessary. An air leak in the siphon system could also be the cause; inspect the siphon hose and connections, removing old sealant and applying PTFE tape before reconnecting. If the coating material is too viscous, this can hinder siphoning; check the material viscosity and add solvent to lower it. Finally, the siphon hose might be too long, have too small of an ID, or the strainer screen might be too fine for the coating material; use a correctly sized siphon hose and check the strainer screen, opting for a coarser mesh screen if it's clogged.
