Product Overview
The Graco 104440 is a genuine replacement bypass valve filter specifically engineered for Graco Ultra series sprayers. This integrated component combines filtration and pressure regulation functions, filtering fluid while managing system pressure through the bypass circuit. Manufactured to exact Graco specifications with a metal/mesh composite construction, this valve filter ensures clean fluid delivery, protects spray tips from clogging, and maintains optimal system pressure for consistent spray performance.
Frequently Asked Questions
This component serves dual purposes: it filters contaminants from the fluid stream while also regulating system pressure by allowing excess fluid to bypass back to the supply when pressure exceeds set limits, protecting the system from over-pressure conditions.
Unlike a standard bowl filter that only provides filtration, the bypass valve filter combines filtration with pressure regulation. It includes valve mechanisms that open at predetermined pressures to protect the system, making it a more complex, multi-functional component.
Regular cleaning of the filter element is essential. Inspect for proper valve operation during maintenance cycles. Check for wear on sealing surfaces and replace if the filter shows damage or if pressure regulation becomes inconsistent. Always follow Graco's recommended maintenance schedule.
