Why is there no purge air when I press the purge switch on my Nordson Paint Sprayer?

If there is no purge air when you press the gun purge switch on your Nordson Paint Sprayer, it could be due to a malfunctioning spray gun trigger switch or cable, or controller manifold purge solenoid valve; no air pressure, or kinked air tubing. If the controller interface does not display P when the purge switch is pressed, the gun trigger switch may be defective. Perform the Gun Cable Continuity Test. If the cable is good, replace the trigger switch. If the interface displays P when the purge switch is pressed, check the purge air tubing and purge manifold solenoid valve.

Why are multiple keys not working on my Nordson Encore LT Paint Sprayer keypad?

If more than one key on the keypad of your Nordson Paint Sprayer quits working when pressed, the flex connection from the keypad to the main board may not be seated properly. Loosen and re-seat the flex circuit on the main board, making sure the flex cable is fully inserted into the connector. To loosen the flex circuit, gently pull the black bar on the cable connector away from the white connector. This will allow you to adjust the flex cable to ensure proper seating. The cable should be inserted past the white line marked towards the end of the cable. Push the black bar back into the white connector to secure.

What to do if the trigger LED blinks and the Nordson Encore LT won't spray?

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.

What to do if my Nordson Paint Sprayer has no kV output (A=0) but powder is spraying?

Brandy AndradeSep 4, 2025
If your Nordson Paint Sprayer has no kV output (A=0) but powder is spraying, it could be that the spray gun power supply is open. Perform the Power Supply Resistance Test. Another cause may be a damaged gun cable. Perform the Gun Cable Continuity Test. If an open or short is found, replace the cable.

If your Nordson Paint Sprayer has no kV output (kV=0) but powder is spraying, it could be due to a damaged gun cable. Perform the Gun Cable Continuity Checks. If an open or short is found, replace the cable. Another possibility is that the spray gun power supply is shorted. Perform the Power Supply Resistance Test.

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.

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.

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.
