Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the voltage and amperage rating for the GE-3006 contactor?
A: The GE-3006 is a 36VDC contactor rated for 300 amperes. It is available in DPDT (reversing) or SPNO (single-pole normally open) configurations to suit different electric lift truck circuit requirements.
Q: What cross-reference part numbers are equivalent to the GE-3006?
A: Cross-reference numbers include 107304FR136XN (36V GE EV100 300A intermittent duty), 107300AA142XN (36/48V GE EV100 300A continuous duty), and GEIC4482. Verify your equipment voltage and duty cycle requirements match the cross-reference before substitution.
Q: Is the GE-3006 rated for continuous or intermittent duty?
A: The GE-3006 is available for both continuous and intermittent duty operation depending on configuration. The 107300AA142XN cross-reference handles continuous duty at 300A, while 107304FR136XN is intermittent rated. Confirm your lift truck circuit requires continuous operation before ordering.
Q: What is the physical mounting style for the GE-3006 contactor?
A: The GE-3006 features a panel mount design with standard EV100 footprint. This allows it to fit replacement applications on Crown, Toyota, Raymond, and other EV100-series electric lift trucks without additional mounting hardware.
Q: Can the GE-3006 be used on both 36VDC and 48VDC electric lift trucks?
A: The GE-3006 itself is 36VDC rated. However, the cross-reference part 107300AA142XN is rated for both 36VDC and 48VDC systems. Verify your equipment voltage before ordering to ensure proper coil operation and contact current capacity.
Q: What is the difference between DPDT and SPNO configuration options for this contactor?
A: DPDT (Double-Pole Double-Throw) provides reversing capability for motor direction control, required on most lift trucks. SPNO (Single-Pole Normally Open) is a simple on/off switch configuration used in circuits without reversing requirements. Confirm your lift truck control circuit needs before selecting configuration.
