Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the voltage rating for the HY A-49164A key switch?
A: The HY A-49164A is rated for 12VDC or 24VDC operation, depending on your specific Hyster truck configuration. Verify your vehicle electrical system voltage before ordering to ensure correct fitment.
Q: What type of housing material does the HY A-49164A use?
A: The HY A-49164A features injection-molded engineering plastic housing, which provides a lightweight and durable construction suitable for heavy-duty electric lift truck applications. This material resists impact and environmental degradation common in warehouse and distribution settings.
Q: What are the cross-references for HY A-49164A?
A: The HY A-49164A cross-references to HYA-49164A and A-49164A, and supersedes the earlier A49164 design. These are direct OEM replacement equivalents. Confirm your current part number against these cross-references to identify the correct replacement.
Q: How does HY A-49164A compare to the HY A-49164-A?
A: The HY A-49164A uses engineering plastic housing, while HY A-49164-A uses zinc alloy. The HY A-49164A supports both 12VDC and 24VDC, while HY A-49164-A is rated 12VDC only. Both are barrel-key maintained-contact ignition switches. Contact us with your truck model to confirm which part you need.
Q: Is the HY A-49164A suitable for outdoor and cold storage environments?
A: The engineering plastic housing on the HY A-49164A provides good performance in variable temperature and moisture conditions typical of warehouses and cold storage facilities. However, verify operational temperature specifications for your specific application environment before use.
