Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What voltage system is the 375-3018 contactor rated for?
A: The 375-3018 is a 24 volt DC contactor designed for electric lift trucks and material handling equipment operating on 24 volt battery systems.
Q: What equipment types use the 375-3018 contactor?
A: This contactor is used in electric pallet jacks, straddle carriers, order pickers, and similar electric lift equipment from manufacturers such as Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Linde, Clark, and BT. Verify voltage compatibility with your specific equipment before ordering.
Q: What physical specifications should I verify when ordering the 375-3018?
A: Check the mounting configuration, terminal type and size, coil voltage (24V confirmed), and overall dimensions. Measure the current contactor to ensure the replacement matches existing mounting and electrical connections on your equipment.
Q: How often should a contactor be inspected for maintenance?
A: Inspect contactors during routine equipment maintenance, typically every 500 to 1000 operating hours depending on duty cycle. Look for burnt or pitted contacts, corrosion, or signs of arcing. Replace if contacts show significant wear or if electrical function degrades.
Q: What environmental factors affect contactor lifespan?
A: Temperature extremes, humidity, corrosive environments, and dust exposure can shorten contactor life. Equipment operated in cold storage, wet facilities, or high-vibration environments typically requires more frequent contactor replacement than standard warehouse conditions.
