The Genie 79495GT is a genuine OEM Check Valve, 100PSI designed for GS-2668 DC and GS-3268 DC electric scissor lifts. Sourced directly from Genie, this part matches the original component specification, ensuring correct pressure regulation and hydraulic circuit integrity right out of the box. Cross-reference 79495GT against your parts manual to confirm fitment before ordering. Whether you are performing scheduled maintenance or addressing a hydraulic fault, this check valve restores your machine to proper operating condition.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Pressure Rating — Rated at 100PSI to match the original hydraulic circuit design, ensuring the valve opens and closes at the correct threshold — not an approximated aftermarket tolerance.
- Direct-Fit Replacement — Engineered to the same port configuration and thread specification as the original, allowing straightforward installation without reworking hydraulic connections.
- Confirmed Scissor Lift Compatibility — Fits GS-2668 DC and GS-3268 DC electric-drive scissor lifts, keeping your Genie GS-series machines running on verified OEM components.
- Hydraulic Circuit Protection — A properly functioning check valve prevents backflow and pressure bleed-down in the hydraulic system, keeping the platform stable at height and protecting pumps and cylinders from reverse-flow damage.
- Platform Stability and Operator Safety — On aerial scissor lifts, hydraulic integrity directly affects platform hold — a failed or leaking check valve can cause unintended platform drift, making this a critical safety-related component.
A check valve is a one-way flow control device in the hydraulic circuit that allows fluid to move in a single direction and prevents it from flowing back when pressure is released or lost. On electric scissor lifts like the GS-2668 DC and GS-3268 DC, the check valve holds the platform at its raised position by blocking reverse flow through the lift cylinder circuit. When this valve fails — whether through internal wear, contamination, or a compromised seat — the platform can lose pressure and drift downward unintentionally, creating a serious hazard and interrupting work. Replacing the check valve with the correct genuine OEM part restores dependable pressure hold and protects the hydraulic components downstream.
