Titan part 940-562 is a shutoff valve used to control fluid flow in compatible Admiral spray systems. This valve allows the operator to stop paint flow at a specific point in the system, facilitating maintenance, tip changes, or pressure relief. Replacing a leaking or hard‑to‑operate shutoff valve restores proper flow control and system safety.

The Titan 940-562 Shutoff Valve is a manual flow control valve used in Admiral spray systems. It allows the operator to quickly stop paint flow at the valve location, which is useful for isolating sections of the system during maintenance, tip changes, or emergency stops.
Over time, shutoff valves can develop leaks, become difficult to turn, or fail to seal completely due to worn seals, debris, or corrosion. A faulty valve can cause dripping, pressure loss, or unsafe conditions. Replacing the valve with 940-562 restores positive shutoff and reliable flow control.
| Function | Description |
|---|---|
| Flow control | Opens or closes fluid passage with a quarter‑turn or multi‑turn handle |
| System isolation | Allows maintenance downstream without draining entire system |
| Safety | Provides a manual shutoff for emergency or pressure relief |
| Symptom | Indication |
|---|---|
| Leakage | Paint seeps from valve stem or body when closed |
| Difficult operation | Handle is stiff, grinds, or won't turn fully |
| Fails to seal | Fluid continues to flow even when valve is closed |
| Visible damage | Cracked body, corroded threads, or missing handle |

When replacing a shutoff valve, inspect these related components for wear or damage.
If the valve leaks from the stem, internal seals may be damaged – replacement valve includes new seals.
Inspect threads on connecting pipes or hoses for damage that could prevent a good seal.
A clogged gun or hose can put extra backpressure on the shutoff valve – inspect and clean as needed.
