Product Description
SOLENOID (24 VOLT)
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the voltage specification and function of the 0957643-BB solenoid?
A: The 0957643-BB is a 24-volt solenoid valve actuator for electric lift truck hydraulic circuits. It controls directional flow or load-holding functions by energizing a hydraulic spool. Ensure your equipment uses 24VDC electrical systems before ordering.
Q: Which electric lift truck models and manufacturers use the 0957643-BB solenoid?
A: The 0957643-BB is compatible with electric lift trucks from Crown, Toyota, Raymond, Yale, Hyster, and Linde. Multiple model years and series use this solenoid across different circuit applications. Verify the part number on your lift truck or cross-reference by model and serial number for exact compatibility.
Q: What symptoms indicate the 0957643-BB solenoid has failed?
A: Loss of directional control, steering malfunction, inability to engage lift or lower functions, or stuck steering are typical failure signs. An open circuit test reveals a burned-out coil. Visual inspection may show burned connector terminals, corrosion, or a scorched solenoid body.
Q: How long does a 0957643-BB solenoid typically last in service?
A: In normal material handling duty, a 24-volt solenoid typically operates for 2000 to 4000 hours. Heavy-duty, continuous cycling or contaminated hydraulic fluid can reduce solenoid life. Proper electrical voltage and circuit protection extend operating life significantly.
Q: What maintenance prevents premature failure of the 0957643-BB?
A: Keep electrical connections clean and tight to prevent corrosion and voltage loss. Maintain hydraulic fluid at proper cleanliness levels to prevent debris from jamming the solenoid plunger. Protect the solenoid from water immersion and sustained high temperatures.
