Abstract

A dispensing system detects system blockages in a delivery system due to curing or pack-out between a fluid source and a fluid dispense valve. The dispensing system automatically compensates for blockages in the delivery system by diverting fluid flow from one fluid circuit line to a parallel fluid circuit line leading to a dispensing valve.
