GRACO 26C276 is a genuine OEM latching solenoid used in select Graco systems to actuate a valve mechanism with minimal continuous power draw. Unlike a standard (continuous-duty) solenoid that must stay energized to hold position, a latching solenoid is designed to switch states using a brief electrical pulse and remain in position until commanded to changehelpful for reducing heat and power consumption in electronically controlled fluid/air circuits.
What It Does
Electrically actuates a valve function (open/close or shift) within an OEM control circuit
Latching design maintains its state without constant energizing (system-dependent)
Supports consistent, repeatable cycling in automated or control-driven operation
Common Reasons to Replace
Valve wont shift, wont hold position, or behaves intermittently
Click/no-click condition during commanded actuation
Coil damage from contamination, moisture intrusion, overheating, or wiring issues
Troubleshooting confirms proper signal is present but actuation is inconsistent
Installation Notes
Match the part number exactlylatching solenoids are not interchangeable with continuous-duty types.
Before replacing, inspect the connector, harness, and control output for loose pins, corrosion, or damaged wiring.
If the solenoid is mounted to a valve body, ensure sealing surfaces are clean and properly seated during reassembly.
After installation, function-test the actuation cycle to confirm reliable switching and holding behavior.
