The GRACO 902979 is an intake valve housing designed for use in GRACO SaniForce sanitary pumps. It is a critical component that facilitates the intake of fluids into the pump assembly. The material is not explicitly specified, but GRACO SaniForce housings are typically constructed from stainless steel for sanitary applications. Its intended function is to house the intake valve and ensure proper fluid flow into the pump cylinder.

Key Features:

• Intake Valve Housing
• Stainless steel (typical for SaniForce, not explicitly stated for this part)
• GRACO SaniForce sanitary pumps (models 24G748, 24G749, 24G750, 24G753)
• Designed for sanitary applications
• Facilitates easy maintenance and replacement
• Reliable performance in demanding environments

Applications:
Used in GRACO SaniForce sanitary pumps for applications requiring hygienic fluid transfer, such as food, beverage, pharmaceutical, and chemical processing.

Installation Notes:

• Using genuine GRACO parts ensures optimal performance, reliability, and compatibility with your equipment.
• Lubricate and slide the intake valve housing up into the cylinder until the bottom holes align with the cylinder holes.
• Secure using the retaining pin and two o-rings/retaining clips.
• Ensure all seals and bearings are properly installed and oriented before assembly.
• Regularly inspect for wear or damage.
• Replace seals and bearings as needed during maintenance.
• Follow GRACO’s recommended lubrication and assembly procedures.
