Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does the CR 094567 brush set do in a Crown electric lift truck?
A: The CR 094567 brush set consists of motor carbon brushes and springs that deliver electrical current from the stationary contacts to the rotating armature in the traction or pump motor. Worn brushes cause reduced motor power, arcing, and eventual motor failure.
Q: Which Crown motors use the CR 094567 brush set?
A: The CR 094567 is designed for Crown 24 VDC series DC motors used in electric pallet jacks and walkie trucks. Verify motor model and voltage rating on the nameplate. This brush set fits standard 2-pole and 4-pole motor configurations. Contact us with your motor model number for exact compatibility.
Q: What are the specifications of the CR 094567 brushes?
A: The CR 094567 set contains four carbon brushes with composite material rated for continuous duty at 24 VDC. Each brush is 0.625 inch wide, 0.5 inch thick, and 1.25 inches long with reinforced graphite composition. Spring tension is calibrated at 4.5 to 5.5 pounds per brush.
Q: How often should CR 094567 brushes be replaced?
A: Replace the CR 094567 brush set every 2 to 3 years or after 4,000 to 6,000 operating hours, depending on motor duty cycle and load. Heavy use, continuous rated operation, and high ambient temperatures accelerate brush wear. Inspect brushes every 6 months during routine motor maintenance.
Q: What are the warning signs that CR 094567 brushes need replacement?
A: Motor performance degrades with worn brushes. Watch for: reduced maximum speed under full load, intermittent loss of power, visible sparking or burning smell from the motor housing, grinding or chattering sounds during startup, and brushes worn down to 0.25 inch or less. Once worn below 0.25 inch, replace immediately to avoid commutator damage.
Q: Can CR 094567 brushes be used as cross-reference for other motor brands?
A: The CR 094567 is Crown OEM specification. While Toyota and Raymond electric trucks use similar 24 VDC motors, brush compatibility depends on exact commutator geometry, brush holder design, and spring tension. Do not substitute without confirming dimensions and spring pressure match. Contact us to verify compatibility with your specific motor model.
