Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between the RA DS226823 and RA DS226824?
A: Both the RA DS226823 and RA DS226824 are hour meter and BDI assemblies rated for 24-36V Curtis control systems. The difference lies in connector type, connector orientation, or mounting configuration. Verify your specific equipment model and dashboard panel design before selecting between these parts.
Q: Which equipment models require the RA DS226824 instead of the RA DS226823?
A: The RA DS226824 is used on specific Raymond and other OEM lift truck models that have different connector or dashboard mounting requirements than those using RA DS226823. Check your equipment model number and serial range to determine which variant you need.
Q: Is the RA DS226824 compatible with non-Curtis control systems?
A: The RA DS226824 is designed specifically for Curtis 24-36V control systems. It will not function correctly on other controller brands such as Alltrax, Azure, or Sevcon systems. Verify your controller brand before ordering.
Q: What symptoms indicate the RA DS226824 hour meter or BDI is failing?
A: Failure symptoms include blank or dim display, inaccurate voltage readings, hour meter that does not increment during operation, or intermittent display response. If the unit does not power on or responds erratically to voltage changes, replacement is required.
Q: Does the RA DS226824 require recalibration after installation?
A: The RA DS226824 is a plug-and-play assembly that does not require field recalibration. Once connected to the Curtis control system, the hour meter and BDI will begin functioning immediately. No programming or setup is necessary.
