ASAB S Series - Replacement S1/S3 Intake Housing
The S1/S3 Intake Housing is the main inlet body on the ASAB S1 and S3 fluid section, forming the material entry point into the pump and supporting the intake valve components to seal and flow correctly. A good intake housing helps the sprayer prime quickly, maintain steady supply to the pump, and hold pressure without unwanted bypass or cavitation.
If the sprayer is slow to prime, sucking air, pulsating, or losing pressure, the intake housing is worth a close look—especially if the threads are damaged, the sealing surfaces are worn, or there’s scoring where the valve components seat. Replacing the housing restores proper alignment and sealing, and can save you from chasing prime issues that never quite go away.
Key features

Provides the pump’s inlet body for consistent material flow into the fluid section
-
Supports correct sealing and alignment of intake valve components
-
Ideal replacement when the housing is cracked, scored, worn, leaking, or has damaged threads
-
Suits ASAB S1 / S3 pump assemblies (configuration dependent)
What’s included
-
1 x S1/S3 Intake Housing (service replacement)
Safety Check
-
Relieve all fluid pressure before loosening any inlet or fluid-section components (follow the sprayer’s pressure relief procedure).
-
Isolate power (unplug/disconnect) before working on the pump.
-
Wear PPE: eye protection and chemical-resistant gloves—especially when flushing or handling solvents.
-
Injection hazard: never check for leaks with your hand; high-pressure fluid can penetrate skin.
-
Restart carefully: prime at low pressure first, confirm the intake seals correctly and no air is being drawn in, then return to normal operation.
