A pump including a pump body and an intake valve attached to the pump body, connected to a source of a coating product, the intake valve including a valve body and a valve shutter. The valve body includes a first component secured to the pump body, and a second component screwed to the first component and including a valve-shutter support situated radially toward the inside of the first component and forming a seat of the valve to collaborate with the valve shutter to establish sealing, the second component also including a nut, attached to the valve-shutter support, extending radially around an end part of the first component, this end part having an external screw thread collaborating with an internal screw thread of the nut, and when the nut has been unscrewed from the first component, the second component and the valve shutter may be extracted from the first component.

A system having a material sensor system coupled to a material tank is provided. The material tank is configured to receive a quantity of the material and output a flow of the material. The material sensor system includes a float system coupled to an inner surface of the material tank. The float system includes a float configured float within a float cavity. The material sensor system includes a switch coupled to an outer surface of the material tank. The switch is communicatively coupled to the float system through a wall of the material tank, and the switch is configured to send one or more signals to a control system when the float engages the switch.

A hydraulic pump assembly comprises a rotatable piston drum (20) with at least one centrifugal lever (23) pivotally attached thereto for radial movements between radial flanges (20) under the action of centrifugal force at rotation of the piston drum. The centrifugal lever (23) is arranged to control the position of a valve member, preferably a ball (22), at the opening end of a bore (21) in the piston drum (20). There is a defined friction surface (28; 32) between the lever (23) and one of the radial flanges (20), and there are spring means (29-31; 25, 33) for resiliently biasing the lever against said one of the flanges.
