Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the 304FR124XN reversing contactor and what equipment does it fit?
A: The 304FR124XN is a 24VDC, 300A continuous-duty double-pole double-throw (DPDT) reversing contactor designed for forward/reverse motor control in General Electric EV100 electric lift trucks. It is also compatible with Komatsu and Allis Chalmers forklifts using equivalent control specifications. This part supersedes 107304FR124XN and is equivalent to IC4482CTTA304FR124XN.
Q: What are the electrical specifications of the 304FR124XN?
A: The 304FR124XN operates at a nominal coil voltage of 24VDC with a rated continuous current capacity of 300A. The DPDT configuration provides simultaneous control of forward and reverse motor direction. Verify your equipment voltage and current requirements match these specifications before ordering.
Q: Are there cross-reference part numbers for the 304FR124XN?
A: Yes. The 304FR124XN supersedes part number 107304FR124XN and is equivalent to IC4482CTTA304FR124XN. When replacing a failed unit, verify the original part number on your equipment to confirm compatibility. All three part numbers refer to the same functional contactor with identical electrical specifications and mounting.
Q: What is the typical lifespan of the 304FR124XN reversing contactor?
A: A properly functioning 304FR124XN is rated for millions of electrical cycles. Lifespan depends on operating conditions, load type, and frequency of direction reversal. In typical material handling operations, the contactor should function reliably for 5-10 years or more. Failure symptoms include sluggish motor response, inability to reverse direction, or audible chatter during operation.
