SOLENOID VALVE
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the function of the CR 84610-001 solenoid valve?
A: The CR 84610-001 is a directional control solenoid valve for Crown, Toyota, and Raymond electric pallet jacks. It routes hydraulic fluid to raise or lower the mast by energizing the solenoid coil. It sits inline between the pump and the main control cylinder.
Q: What pressure and flow rating does the CR 84610-001 have?
A: The CR 84610-001 is rated for 80V DC systems with typical flow rates of 10-15 GPM at operating pressure of 1200-1500 PSI for standard electric pallet jacks. Verify pressure and flow specs with your equipment manual to ensure compatibility with your pump and cylinder.
Q: How do I diagnose a faulty CR 84610-001 valve?
A: Failure symptoms include mast not lifting, slow lift response, uncontrolled descent, or solenoid hum with no valve action. Test voltage to the solenoid coil using a multimeter when activating controls. If voltage is present but the mast does not lift, the valve spool or solenoid coil likely requires replacement.
Q: What is the expected lifespan of the CR 84610-001?
A: Well-maintained CR 84610-001 valves typically last 5-8 years. Lifespan depends on hydraulic fluid cleanliness, solenoid coil integrity, and spool wear. Contaminated or degraded hydraulic fluid accelerates internal wear and spool sticking.
Q: Can the CR 84610-001 be rebuilt or must it be replaced?
A: Most solenoid valves like CR 84610-001 cannot be economically rebuilt. If the solenoid coil is faulty, replacement is required. If the valve spool is stuck, attempt cleaning the hydraulic system before replacing. In most cases, full valve replacement is the fastest and most reliable solution.
