The Genie 31082GT is a genuine OEM Counterbalance Valve, 2500 PSI designed for Genie S-series telescopic boom lifts and Z-series articulating boom lifts. As a direct OEM replacement sourced through Genie's authorized parts network, this valve is built to the same specification as the original component installed at the factory. It is engineered to fit the S-40, S-45, S-60, S-65, S-80, S-85, Z-45/22, Z-45/22 MP, and Z-60/34 — making it a go-to hydraulic service part across a broad range of Genie boom lift platforms. Cross-reference part number 31082GT against your machine's parts manual before ordering to confirm the correct application.
Key Features
- Rated to Spec — Set at 2500 PSI to match the original hydraulic circuit requirements of Genie telescopic and articulating boom lifts — no re-calibration needed after installation.
- Genuine OEM Component — Manufactured to Genie's original design tolerances, ensuring the valve seats, seals, and porting match what came off the production line.
- Broad Boom Lift Coverage — Fits Genie S-series telescopic booms (S-40, S-45, S-60, S-65, S-80, S-85) and Z-series articulating booms (Z-45/22, Z-45/22 MP, Z-60/34).
- Controlled Load Holding — A properly functioning counterbalance valve prevents uncontrolled boom descent under load; replacing a worn or leaking valve restores safe, predictable hydraulic motion.
- Safety-Critical Hydraulic Function — On aerial work platforms, counterbalance valves are a primary safeguard against unintended platform movement. Using the correct OEM-rated valve is essential for maintaining the hydraulic integrity the machine was designed around.
A counterbalance valve is a hydraulic control component that holds a load in position and prevents the boom from drifting or dropping when the machine is at rest or when hydraulic pressure is suddenly lost. It works by maintaining a set back-pressure — in this case 2500 PSI — that must be overcome before the actuator is allowed to move in the load-lowering direction, effectively locking the circuit against uncontrolled movement. When this valve fails or begins to leak internally, operators may notice slow boom drift, inconsistent lowering speeds, or an inability to hold the platform steady at elevation — all conditions that require immediate service to keep the machine safe and operational.
