Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the BA GEC59 contact used for?
A: The BA GEC59 is an electrical contact assembly for control systems in electric lift trucks. It serves as a switching element in the main contactor or control relay, handling electrical load distribution for motor and hydraulic circuits.
Q: Which lift truck brands use the BA GEC59 contact?
A: The BA GEC59 contact is compatible with electric pallet jacks and lift trucks from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, and Hyster. Verify your equipment model and electrical system voltage (24V or 48V DC) before ordering.
Q: What material is the BA GEC59 contact made from?
A: The BA GEC59 contact is typically constructed from silver-nickel or copper-silver alloy to resist arcing and pitting during electrical switching. This material composition ensures reliable performance under repeated load cycles.
Q: How often should the BA GEC59 contact be replaced?
A: The BA GEC59 contact typically requires replacement every 3 to 5 years depending on duty cycle and environmental conditions. Heavy-use equipment or exposure to moisture may necessitate more frequent replacement.
Q: What are failure symptoms that indicate BA GEC59 contact replacement?
A: Common failure symptoms include intermittent loss of power to the drive motor, hesitant acceleration, or complete failure to respond to control inputs. Visible pitting or corrosion on the contact surface also indicates replacement is needed.
