Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What voltage and amperage rating does the SAS-5201B have?
A: The SAS-5201B is rated for 12VDC continuous duty with a 100 amp continuous current rating. This specification is standard for main power solenoids in 12-volt electric lift trucks and material handling equipment.
Q: What OEM part numbers does the SAS-5201B replace?
A: The SAS-5201B replaces multiple Delco and Autolite/Prestolite equivalents: Delco 1114208, 1114218, 1114283, 1114223, 1114534, 1114547; Autolite/Prestolite 15-88, 15-133, 15-236, 15-311, 15-316. It is also equivalent to SAS-4201, SAS-4202, SAS-5201A, SAS-5203, SAS-5203A, and SWX-88.
Q: What terminal configuration and mounting style does the SAS-5201B have?
A: The SAS-5201B features a four-terminal post design with flat mounting bracket for bolt-on installation. This is the industry standard for 12-volt solenoids in Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, Hyster, and comparable electric lift truck platforms.
Q: What contact material is used in the SAS-5201B and what are the performance benefits?
A: The SAS-5201B uses silver alloy contacts that provide superior electrical conductivity, low contact resistance, and excellent arc suppression. Silver alloy is preferred for continuous duty material handling applications where solenoid reliability directly impacts equipment uptime and operational safety.
Q: Can the SAS-5201B be used interchangeably with SAS-5201 or SAS-5201-A?
A: Yes, the SAS-5201B is directly interchangeable with SAS-5201 and SAS-5201-A. All three are 12VDC, 100 amp continuous duty solenoids with four-terminal Prestolite-style architecture and flat mounting brackets. Verify terminal post diameter and bolt hole spacing match your equipment before ordering.
Q: What is the expected service life of the SAS-5201B in continuous duty operation?
A: With correct voltage supply and circuit protection, the SAS-5201B typically delivers 3 to 5 years of continuous service. Lifespan depends on coil temperature management, contact cycling frequency, and electrical load consistency. Operating outside 12VDC specification or exceeding 100 amp continuous rating will significantly reduce service life.
