If there is no KV output from your Nordson Paint Sprayer when the gun is triggered, but powder flow is okay, the KV might be set to zero. Set the KV to a non-zero value.

Why is the KV/A display blinking on my Nordson Encore LT and there's no KV when triggered?

If the KV/A display is blinking and there's no KV when the gun is triggered on your Nordson Paint Sprayer, the gun may be shorted. Check the gun cable, cable extension, and gun power supply.

Why does my Nordson Encore LT Paint Sprayer have no kV or powder output?

If your Nordson Paint Sprayer has no kV output and no powder output, it could be due to a malfunctioning trigger switch or cable. Check the trigger LED on the controller interface. If the LED is not lit, check the switch connection to the gun cable and perform the Gun Cable Continuity Test. If the cable and connections are good, replace the switch. Another cause could be that the controller is configured for automatic operation. Cycle the controller power. If A appears on the kV/uA display, remove the main control board and move the JP1 jumper to the Manual position.

How to improve wrap and transfer efficiency on Nordson Paint Sprayer?
S
scottwilliamAug 28, 2025
To improve wrap and transfer efficiency on your Nordson Paint Sprayer, first, increase the electrostatic voltage. Also, examine the electrode connection by cleaning the electrode and checking for damage. Check the electrode resistance. Finally, make sure parts are properly grounded by checking the conveyor chain, rollers, and part hangers for powder buildup, ensuring resistance between parts and ground is 1 megohm or less (500 ohms or less is recommended for best results).

What to do if my Nordson Encore LT Paint Sprayer has low or surging powder flow?
V
victoria69Aug 27, 2025
Low or surging powder flow in your Nordson Paint Sprayer can stem from several issues. Ensure the input air pressure is above 4.1 bar (60 psi). Check for a plugged supply air filter or a full filter bowl, and address any water contamination. Inspect for a plugged flow air valve or any kinks in the air tubing. Other potential causes include a worn pump throat, incorrect pump assembly, a blocked pick-up tube, or incorrect vibratory box feeder settings. Also, examine the powder hose for blockages, kinks, or incorrect length/diameter. Finally, inspect the gun powder path for obstructions and verify that the flow and atomizing air tubing connections are correct.

Why does my Nordson Encore LT Paint Sprayer have an uneven spray pattern?
J
Jeremy PhillipsAug 26, 2025
An uneven pattern, unsteady, or inadequate powder flow in your Nordson Paint Sprayer can be caused by several factors. It could be due to a blockage in the spray gun, powder hose, or pump. Try purging the spray gun, cleaning the nozzle and electrode assembly, and blowing out the powder hose. Also, disassemble and clean the pump, inlet and outlet tubes, and elbow of the spray gun. Replace components as needed. Other causes include a worn nozzle, deflector, or electrode assembly, damp powder, low atomizing or flow air pressure, or improper fluidization of powder in the hopper. Consider checking and correcting these potential issues.

Why is my Nordson Paint Sprayer not spraying powder and the trigger LED is blinking?

Matthew EvansAug 26, 2025
If your Nordson Paint Sprayer is not spraying powder and the trigger LED is blinking, it could be due to a few reasons. The gun may have been triggered while the controller was powering up or waking up, or there might be a shorted trigger switch or cable. Try releasing the spray trigger, then press the Disable/Enable button to put the controller to sleep, and then press it again to wake it up. Also, check the cable and trigger switch for any issues.

If the trigger LED blinks and your Nordson Paint Sprayer won't spray, it could be because the gun was triggered when the controller was powered up or woken up. Release the trigger. Press the Enable/Disable button to put the controller to sleep, then press the button again to wake it up. Another possibility is a shorted trigger switch or cable, so check the gun cable and trigger switch.
