MICRO-SWITCH
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does the 911094 micro-switch do?
A: The 911094 micro-switch is a safety and control component in electric lift trucks that detects position, motion, or pressure changes. It triggers control circuits, interlocks, and safety functions such as load wheel activation, tilt limit cutoff, or descent control.
Q: Which electric lift trucks use the 911094 micro-switch?
A: The 911094 micro-switch is compatible with various electric pallet jacks, stackers, and lift trucks from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, and similar manufacturers. Verify mounting location and electrical specifications match your specific equipment model.
Q: What are the electrical specifications of the 911094?
A: The 911094 micro-switch is rated for typical material handling equipment voltages and currents. Verify exact voltage rating (12V, 24V, 36V, or 48V) and amperage capacity required by your equipment before ordering. Incorrect voltage rating causes switch failure.
Q: How long does the 911094 micro-switch last?
A: The 911094 micro-switch has a typical lifespan of 50000 to 100000 switching cycles under normal operation. Harsh environments, vibration, and frequent actuation reduce lifespan. Replace if the switch fails to actuate, sticks, or causes intermittent control failures.
Q: What failure symptoms indicate the 911094 switch needs replacement?
A: Replace the 911094 micro-switch if the lift truck does not respond to control inputs, intermittently cuts out during operation, fails to trigger safety interlocks, or if continuity testing shows open or stuck contacts. A failed switch compromises equipment safety and functionality.
Q: Are equivalent cross-reference switches available?
A: Cross-reference compatibility for the 911094 micro-switch depends on your equipment manufacturer and control circuit design. Contact us with your equipment model and current switch specifications to confirm direct equivalents from OEM manufacturers.
