The Genie 217231GT is a genuine OEM Intake Filter Tube designed for Genie super-boom telescopic and articulating boom lifts, including the SX-150, SX-180, SX-135 XC, and ZX-135/70. As a direct OEM replacement, this tube is manufactured to the same specifications as the original component, ensuring a proper, trouble-free installation on your machine. Cross-reference part number 217231GT against your parts manual to confirm fitment before ordering. Sourced directly from Genie, this part delivers the assurance that comes with genuine OEM quality on high-reach aerial equipment where engine system integrity is essential.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Manufactured to Genie's original design tolerances, ensuring the intake tube seats and seals correctly within the air filtration system — critical on large-platform boom lifts operating in dusty or demanding environments.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Engineered to connect to the existing filter housing and intake path with no adaptation, matching the original routing and mounting points on supported models.
- Broad Compatibility Across High-Reach Booms — Fits the SX-150, SX-180, and SX-135 XC super-boom telescopic lifts, as well as the ZX-135/70 articulating boom, covering some of Genie's tallest and most capable platforms.
- Protects Engine Air Supply — A correctly functioning intake tube channels clean, filtered air to the engine. A cracked, collapsed, or deteriorated tube can allow unfiltered air to bypass the filter element, accelerating internal engine wear.
- Operational Confidence at Height — On super-boom and large articulating platforms working at extreme heights, engine reliability is a genuine safety concern. Maintaining the integrity of the air intake system helps keep the power unit running dependably throughout the work cycle.
The intake filter tube is the conduit that directs air from the pre-cleaner or ambient intake into the engine's air filter element, ensuring only clean, filtered air enters the combustion system. On large boom lifts that operate in construction and industrial environments — where airborne dust, debris, and particles are common — this component plays a direct role in protecting engine longevity. When the tube cracks, collapses, or develops a leak at a joint, unfiltered air can enter the engine downstream of the filter, causing accelerated cylinder and valve wear that shortens engine service life and leads to costly repairs.
