Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the BR 27789-058 stationary contact tip?
A: The BR 27789-058 is a stationary contact tip component used in electric lift truck charging systems. Unlike moving contact tips, the stationary version remains fixed in the charger receptacle to provide a consistent electrical connection point for battery charging.
Q: How does the stationary contact tip differ from a standard contact tip?
A: The BR 27789-058 is mounted in a fixed position within the charger, whereas moving contact tips may be spring-loaded or spring-mounted. The stationary design is used in specific lift truck charging architectures where the charger receptacle remains stationary during the charging connection.
Q: What electric lift truck brands use the BR 27789-058?
A: The BR 27789-058 is compatible with electric lift trucks from major OEM manufacturers including Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, Hyster, and similar brands. Verify your specific equipment model and serial range before ordering.
Q: What causes a BR 27789-058 stationary contact tip to fail?
A: Failure typically results from corrosion, pitting from repeated electrical arcing, dirt or debris buildup on the contact surface, or oxidation in humid or outdoor storage environments. Loss of electrical conductivity or intermittent charging indicates replacement is needed.
Q: How often should the BR 27789-058 be replaced?
A: In normal warehouse operation, a stationary contact tip typically lasts 12 to 24 months. Replacement frequency increases in high-use environments or locations with moisture and humidity. Inspect the contact surface regularly for corrosion or pitting.
