The GRACO 165702 is a bleeder valve body, typically constructed from robust materials such as carbon steel or stainless steel, designed to serve as a critical component in GRACO pump systems. Its primary function is to facilitate the release of air or excess fluid from the pump system, ensuring optimal performance and preventing airlock or pressure issues within the equipment.

Key Features:

• Bleeder Valve Body
• 165702
• Compatible with GRACO Dura-Flo pump lowers and similar GRACO pump assemblies
• Designed for reliable air and fluid release
• Robust construction for durability in industrial environments
• Ease of maintenance and replacement as part of routine service

Applications:
Used in industrial pump systems, particularly in lubrication, fluid transfer, and high-pressure applications where air or excess fluid needs to be purged from the system.

Installation Notes:

• Using genuine GRACO parts ensures proper fit, function, and reliability, reducing the risk of leaks or system failure.
• Install the bleeder valve plug fully into the valve body, ensuring proper seating and sealing.
• Torque the plug to the recommended specification (typically 30-38 N•m or 22-28 ft-lb for similar bleeder valve plugs in GRACO systems).
• Lubricate threads and seals as recommended in the manual to prevent damage and ensure longevity.
• Always follow the equipment manual for specific installation and maintenance procedures.
