Counterbalance Valve 139323GT / 139323 – Optimized Product Page Content

🔹 Product Overview
The Counterbalance Valve with Genie part numbers 139323GT and 139323 is a high-capacity, safety-critical hydraulic component used extensively on the major lift and extension cylinders of various high-reach Genie Boom Lifts (S and Z Series).1 This valve’s primary function is essential for safety: it locks the cylinder fluid (preventing cylinder creep or drift) and, when piloted open by the operator’s control, smoothly controls the speed of the lowering load driven by gravity. It ensures that the boom or platform descends only at a controlled rate and never runs away.2
This component is indispensable for the safe and predictable operation of the machine’s primary movements. The part number 139323GT is the necessary replacement for addressing dangerous issues such as uncontrolled boom descent, cylinder drift (creep), or jerky, unstable lowering movements under heavy load.
🔹 Key Features & Benefits
✅ Load Holding Safety: Locks the hydraulic actuator in position, preventing boom drift and unintended movement.
✅ Smooth Motion Control: Controls the speed of lowering/retracting loads driven by gravity, ensuring precise feathering and safety.
✅ Heavy-Duty Fitment: Used across a wide range of popular Genie high-reach Articulating (Z) and Telescopic (S) boom lifts.3
✅ Direct OEM Cross-Reference: High-quality aftermarket equivalent for Genie part numbers 139323GT and 139323.
