Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What equipment does the SY916 contact set fit?
A: The SY916 is a replacement contact set designed for SB350 series battery connectors rated for 3/0 AWG cable applications. It is compatible with electric lift trucks, pallet jacks, and other material handling equipment using SB350 connectors.
Q: What materials are used in the SY916 contact set?
A: The SY916 features copper alloy construction with a tin-plated finish. Copper alloy provides excellent electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance, while the tin plating prevents oxidation and extends contact life.
Q: Is the SY916 rated for 3/0 AWG cable only?
A: Yes, the SY916 is specifically designed for 3/0 AWG cable applications. Do not use this contact set with smaller or larger cable gauges as it will not seat properly in the SB350 connector and may cause electrical failures.
Q: What is the voltage rating of the SY916 contact set?
A: The SY916 is rated for 600V DC maximum, making it suitable for standard 24V, 36V, 48V, and 80V battery systems used in electric lift trucks and pallet jacks.
Q: How often should SY916 contacts be replaced?
A: With proper maintenance, SY916 contacts typically last 3 to 5 years. Replace contacts if you observe arcing, heat discoloration, pitting, or loose connections that cannot be tightened. Periodic inspection of tin plating for damage helps prevent premature failure.
Q: Can the SY916 be used as a direct replacement in existing SB350 connectors?
A: Yes, the SY916 is a direct replacement contact for SB350 series connectors. Verify that your existing connector housing is SB350 series before ordering to ensure compatibility.
