Product Description
SOLENOID (12 VOLT)
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the operating voltage of the 121906 solenoid?
A: The 121906 is a 12 volt solenoid designed for low-voltage electric lift truck control circuits. Verify your trucks electrical system is 12VDC before ordering. Applying 24VDC to a 12V solenoid will damage the coil and create a fire hazard.
Q: What electric lift truck models use the 121906 solenoid?
A: The 121906 is an OEM equivalent solenoid for 12-volt electric pallet jacks and walkie stackers from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, and similar manufacturers. It is commonly used in traction motor control circuits. Cross-reference your truck model documentation or circuit diagram to confirm this is the correct solenoid.
Q: How many switching cycles can the 121906 withstand before replacement?
A: The 121906 is engineered to exceed 100,000 switching cycles under normal load conditions. In high-cycle operations (lift cycles per shift), monitor for intermittent electrical faults or mechanical chatter. Coil burn-out or stuck plunger indicates solenoid failure and replacement is necessary.
Q: What is the mounting configuration of the 121906 solenoid?
A: The 121906 features a base-mount design with threaded fastening points for bolt-on installation to motor or relay housings. Ensure the solenoid frame aligns with mounting brackets and that electrical connectors have clearance from surrounding components.
Q: What materials are used in the 121906 solenoid construction?
A: The 121906 has a steel housing and ferrous alloy plunger for durability in industrial environments. The coil is potted to resist moisture and vibration. Steel construction provides corrosion resistance in wet storage and cold-storage applications typical of material handling facilities.
