The Genie 123516GT Normally Open Temperature Switch is a genuine OEM component designed for Genie GTH-1048 and GTH-1056 telehandlers. Sourced directly from Genie, this switch meets the original design specification for these machines and drops in as a direct replacement. Cross-reference part number 123516GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm it is the correct item for your unit before ordering.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Manufactured to Genie's original specification, with calibrated trip-point accuracy at 250°F and correct 1/2 NPT thread form for a dependable, leak-free installation.
- Normally Open (NO) Configuration — The switch opens in its resting state and closes on temperature rise, matching the original circuit behavior required by the GTH-1048 and GTH-1056.
- Direct OEM Replacement — Threaded 1/2 NPT port matches the original mounting boss, so this switch installs without modification using standard hand tools.
- Confirmed Fitment — Validated for Genie GTH-1048 and GTH-1056 telehandlers; verify the part number against your serial-number-specific parts manual before ordering.
- Operational Protection — A correctly functioning temperature switch triggers the appropriate machine response when thermal thresholds are reached; a failed switch can prevent that signal from firing, leaving the machine without proper temperature monitoring.
- Safety-Critical Sensing — Temperature switches are part of the machine's protective monitoring circuit. Using the correct OEM-spec switch ensures the trigger point matches the design intent of the control system on these telehandlers.
A normally open temperature switch remains in an open-circuit state under normal operating conditions and closes when fluid or component temperature reaches its rated trip point — in this case 250°F. When the switch closes, it sends a signal to the machine's control system to alert the operator or trigger a protective response. A switch that fails to close at the correct temperature can mask an overheating condition, while one that trips prematurely can cause unnecessary shutdowns. Replacing a worn or faulty switch with the correct OEM part restores the accuracy of that thermal monitoring function on the GTH-1048 and GTH-1056.
