CONTACTOR (24 VOLT)
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the voltage specification for the C39068-3 contactor?
A: The C39068-3 is a 24-volt DC contactor. Do not apply AC voltage or higher DC voltages to this unit. Verify your lift truck electrical system voltage before ordering to ensure the 24V specification matches your equipment.
Q: Which electric lift truck models use the C39068-3 contactor?
A: The C39068-3 is designed for electric lift truck applications requiring 24-volt contactor control. It is compatible with electric lift trucks from Crown, Raymond, Toyota, and Yale. Confirm your equipment model and serial range against the C39068-3 part number to verify fitment.
Q: What does a contactor do in an electric lift truck?
A: The contactor is an electrically controlled switch that manages high-current circuits in the lift truck. The C39068-3 receives a 24V signal from the control circuit and switches main power to hydraulic pumps, traction motors, or other auxiliary systems. Failure causes loss of lift or drive function.
Q: What operating temperature range is the C39068-3 rated for?
A: The C39068-3 is rated for standard industrial indoor warehouse environments. Exact operating temperature range varies by OEM specification. Do not use in extreme heat or cold beyond manufacturer limits. For cold storage applications, verify the contactor is rated for low-temperature operation.
Q: How often should the C39068-3 contactor be serviced or replaced?
A: Contactors are typically not scheduled for routine replacement. Replace only when electrical testing shows failure, such as inability to hold voltage, failure to energize, or visible burning of contacts. Under normal duty, the C39068-3 should last 3 to 5 years or longer.
