SOLENOID (24 VOLT)
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Which electric lift trucks use the CK907270 24-volt solenoid?
A: The CK907270 is designed for 24-volt electric lift truck systems from OEM brands such as Crown, Toyota, and Raymond. Verify your truck voltage before ordering, as installing incorrect voltage solenoids causes system failure and potential electrical damage.
Q: What is the difference between CK896553 and CK907270?
A: The primary difference is voltage rating. The CK896553 is 12-volt and the CK907270 is 24-volt. They are not interchangeable. Using the wrong voltage solenoid will immediately fail and damage your truck electrical system. Always verify your system voltage before ordering.
Q: How do I diagnose a failed solenoid on a 24-volt truck?
A: Symptoms of solenoid failure include no response to lift or lower controls, intermittent hydraulic function, audible clicking when controls are engaged but no hydraulic action, or complete loss of lift function. A volt meter across the solenoid terminals should read 24 volts when the control is activated. No voltage suggests wiring issues; voltage present but no solenoid action indicates solenoid failure.
Q: What maintenance extends solenoid life?
A: Keep the solenoid connector clean and dry, as moisture and corrosion are leading causes of failure. Protect the truck from extreme temperature environments. Heavy dust in warehouse settings increases wear. Clean connectors annually and check for loose wiring. Proper battery maintenance also reduces electrical stress on the solenoid.
Q: How long does a CK907270 solenoid typically last?
A: Under normal operating conditions, a 24-volt solenoid lasts 3 to 5 years. High-cycle applications (frequent lift operations), extreme temperatures, humidity, or poor electrical connections can reduce lifespan to 1 to 2 years. Maintenance and proper electrical system condition directly impact durability.
