Key Features
- Machined OEM Construction — Produced to Genie's exact dimensional tolerances, ensuring the housing conforms precisely to the original mounting geometry and sensor interface.
- Direct OEM Replacement — A genuine Genie part that replaces the original housing on a like-for-like basis, with no rework or modification needed to fit.
- Verified Fitment — Built specifically for Genie Z-40/23N and Z-40/23N RJ articulating boom lifts, covering both standard and rotating-jib variants of the platform.
- Sensor Integrity — A correctly fitted housing keeps the angle sensor properly secured and positioned, supporting accurate boom-angle feedback and consistent machine response.
- Operational Safety — On articulating boom lifts, angle sensing is a core element of platform control and envelope management — a sound, secure housing is essential to keeping that function working as designed.
The angle sensor housing is the machined enclosure that mounts and protects the boom angle sensor on the articulating boom. It holds the sensor in a fixed, precise position so the machine can accurately read boom angle throughout its range of motion. A damaged, cracked, or worn housing can cause the sensor to shift or lose contact, resulting in erratic angle readings, control anomalies, or the machine restricting movement as a safety response — making prompt replacement with the correct OEM part the right call.
