Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What voltage is the 15-253 solenoid, and what are its cross-references?
A: The 15-253 is a 12VDC continuous-duty solenoid. Equivalent part numbers include SOL-253-ORG, SOL253, SOL253ORG, and 253SOL. These all reference the same 12-volt control solenoid for electric lift equipment.
Q: Is the 15-253 compatible with my electric lift truck?
A: The 15-253 is suitable for various electric lift equipment using 12VDC control solenoids. Compatible equipment includes Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, and Hyster 12-volt electric lift trucks and pallet jacks. Verify your equipment circuit voltage is 12VDC before ordering.
Q: What terminal type does the 15-253 use?
A: The 15-253 features stud terminals with threaded connections. This terminal configuration is standard on 12-volt control solenoids for electric warehouse equipment. Verify terminal size and thread pitch match your circuit connections.
Q: What materials are used in the 15-253 solenoid spring?
A: The 15-253 uses spring steel for the return spring mechanism. Spring steel provides reliable repeated actuation without permanent deformation during the high-cycle switching typical of continuous warehouse operations.
Q: Can I use the 15-253 as a direct replacement for SOL-253-ORG?
A: Yes, the 15-253 is a direct replacement for SOL-253-ORG and all its equivalent part numbers (SOL253, SOL253ORG, 253SOL). Verify the terminal type and voltage match your existing installation before ordering.
Q: What is the duty cycle rating for the 15-253?
A: The 15-253 is rated for continuous operation at 12VDC, meaning it can be energized continuously without thermal shutdown. It handles repeated switching cycles during full warehouse shifts. Monitor coil temperature if the solenoid remains energized for extended periods in high-ambient-temperature environments.
