The Genie 37079GT is a genuine OEM Counterbalance Valve, 3000 PSI designed for Genie Z-series articulating boom lifts, including the Z-34/22 IC, Z-30/20 N, and Z-34 IC. As a factory-sourced component, this valve matches the original specifications of the unit it replaces, ensuring correct pressure rating and fitment from the first installation. Cross-reference part number 37079GT against your machine's parts manual to confirm it is the right valve for your serial number and configuration.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Pressure Rating — Sourced directly from Genie, this valve is rated to the original 3000 PSI specification, ensuring correct pressure control without substitution or compromise.
- Direct-Fit Replacement — Built to match the original valve's port configuration and mounting dimensions, this component installs in place of the worn or failed unit without alteration.
- Confirmed Fitment — Fits the Z-34/22 IC, Z-30/20 N, and Z-34 IC articulating boom lifts; verify against your parts manual before ordering to confirm applicability to your unit.
- Load-Holding Integrity — A correctly functioning counterbalance valve prevents uncontrolled movement of the boom under load; a failed valve can allow the boom to drift, disrupting controlled operation.
- Operational Safety — On aerial boom lifts, a properly rated counterbalance valve is critical to maintaining controlled hydraulic function; using the correct OEM-spec replacement supports the safe operation of the boom system.
A counterbalance valve regulates hydraulic fluid flow in one direction while holding a load securely in position when the circuit is not actively powered. On articulating boom lifts such as the Z-34/22 IC and Z-30/20 N, this valve prevents the boom from drifting or dropping unexpectedly by maintaining backpressure against the actuator. When this valve wears, sticks, or fails to hold its rated pressure, boom movement becomes unpredictable — making prompt replacement with a correctly rated component essential to safe and reliable operation.
