Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the voltage and current ratings for the AL SW80-24 contactor?
A: The AL SW80-24 is a 24VDC single pole contactor with a 100A continuous rating. Intermittent ratings range from 185A at 30% duty cycle to 140A at 50% duty cycle, with lower ratings at higher duty cycles (60%, 70%). Consult the full specification sheet for complete duty cycle data.
Q: Which electric lift trucks is the AL SW80-24 compatible with?
A: The AL SW80-24 fits multiple electric lift truck models from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, Hyster, Jungheinrich, Linde, and other OEMs using 24VDC DC motor control systems. Verify mounting bracket compatibility and terminal type before ordering.
Q: What makes the AL SW80-24 suitable for heavy-duty applications?
A: The AL SW80-24 features silver alloy double breaking contacts for reliable DC load switching, mechanically rated to exceed 5 million cycles, and is engineered specifically for continuous industrial material handling duty. This makes it a long-life replacement for worn contactors.
Q: What is the difference between the AL SW80-24 and the AL SW88-24?
A: Both are 24VDC single pole contactors with similar 100A continuous ratings and 5+ million cycle durability. Verify exact terminal type, coil specifications, and application (reversing vs. non-reversing) for your specific truck model, as design differences may affect fitment.
