Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the electrical specifications of the CR 116968 contact kit?
A: The CR 116968 is a main power contactor contact kit with the following ratings: 250A continuous current, 24VDC coil voltage, silver-cadmium alloy contact surfaces with Rockwell C45 minimum hardness, and nickel-plated finish. These specifications are documented for high-performance industrial applications.
Q: What is the construction material and durability of the CR 116968 contact kit?
A: The CR 116968 features SAE-grade spring steel construction for the mechanical contact frame, silver-cadmium alloy contact surfaces rated at Rockwell C45 minimum hardness, and nickel-plated contact faces. This construction provides durability for high-current switching cycles typical of Crown electric lift trucks.
Q: Which Crown electric lift trucks use the CR 116968 contact kit?
A: The CR 116968 is designed as a main power contactor component for Crown electric lift trucks with 24VDC electrical systems and 250A main power requirements. Compatibility varies by model and control system architecture. Verify your Crown equipment specifications before ordering to confirm fitment.
Q: What symptoms indicate the CR 116968 contact kit needs replacement?
A: Signs of contact kit wear include intermittent power loss, slow lift response, hesitation during load lifting, or inability to engage the main power contactor. Contact degradation from repeated switching cycles reduces conductivity and causes these symptoms. A qualified technician should diagnose electrical fault codes to confirm contactor failure.
Q: Is there a cross-reference or equivalent part number for the CR 116968?
A: The CR 116968 is the current OEM part number from Crown for this main power contactor contact kit. No known supersession or cross-reference to other Crown part numbers has been documented. Contact us to verify availability and lead time for your Crown equipment.
