The Genie 29083GT is a genuine OEM Counterbalance Valve, 2500 PSI designed for Genie S-series telescopic boom lifts and Z-series articulating boom lifts. Built to the same specifications as the original factory component, this valve delivers the precise pressure control your hydraulic system depends on for safe, stable boom operation. Confirmed fitment includes the S-60, S-80, S-85, Z-60/34, Z-45/22 MP, and Z-45/22, making this valve a direct replacement for a wide range of Genie boom lift models available through DHS Equipment.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Pressure Rating — Factory-spec 2500 PSI rating ensures the valve operates within the exact hydraulic pressure range your boom lift's circuit was engineered around.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Engineered to the original port configuration and thread spec, this valve seats and seals the same way as the component it replaces — no adapters or machining needed.
- Broad Boom Lift Compatibility — Fits Genie S-series telescopic booms and Z-series articulating booms, including the S-60, S-80, S-85, Z-60/34, Z-45/22 MP, and Z-45/22.
- Controlled Load Holding — Maintains hydraulic load on the boom cylinder when the control valve is in neutral, preventing unintended boom drift that compromises operator positioning and workflow.
- Safety-Critical Hydraulic Integrity — On aerial boom lifts, counterbalance valves are a primary line of defense against uncontrolled boom movement. A failed or bypassing valve can allow the platform to drop unexpectedly, making prompt replacement with a correct OEM part essential to operational safety.
A counterbalance valve is a hydraulic control device installed in the cylinder circuit of a boom lift to hold a load in place and regulate the controlled lowering of the boom. It works by requiring a pilot signal — generated by deliberate operator input — before it allows hydraulic fluid to flow out of the cylinder, preventing the boom from dropping under gravity or external load alone. When this valve wears, sticks, or begins to bypass pressure, the result can be slow or uneven boom movement, load drift, or in severe cases, an inability to hold the platform at height — all of which point to the need for immediate replacement with a properly rated component like this one.
