Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the CR 091828 resistor and what is its function in a lift truck?
A: The CR 091828 is a fixed-value resistor used in Crown electric lift truck control circuits. It is typically part of a traction motor speed controller, solenoid circuit, or charging regulator. It limits current, develops voltage drops, or dissipates heat in power management circuits.
Q: What are the resistance value and wattage rating of the CR 091828?
A: The CR 091828 is rated for a specific resistance value in ohms and wattage. Check the Crown schematic or service manual for your model to confirm the exact value and power rating. Using a mismatched resistor will cause circuit malfunction or component failure.
Q: What are the operating temperature limits for the CR 091828?
A: Crown resistors typically operate from -20C to 80C depending on construction type. Ambient temperature, load cycle, and enclosure ventilation all affect actual operating temperature. Replace if the resistor body shows discoloration, cracking, or if it is too hot to touch during normal operation.
Q: When should the CR 091828 resistor be replaced?
A: Replace the CR 091828 if control circuit performance degrades, lift speed becomes inconsistent, solenoid response becomes sluggish, or if the resistor shows physical damage such as cracks or burnt areas. A failed resistor will also trigger voltage drops or cause related components to fail.
Q: Can the CR 091828 be cross-referenced with aftermarket resistors?
A: The CR 091828 OEM resistor should be used when possible to ensure circuit performance and reliability. Verify resistance value and wattage rating match exactly before ordering an aftermarket replacement. Undersized or incorrect-value resistors will not function properly and may damage control boards or motors.
