Load Cell 1270278GT – Dynamic Load & Overload Safety Sensor for Genie Boom Lifts

Genie 1270278GT Load Cell J1939 650 kg for S-Series and SX-Series Boom Lifts Overload Protection System.

🔹 Product Overview: Critical Load Monitoring and Safety Interlock

The Load Cell with part number 1270278GT (also cross-referenced as 1270278 and superseded by 1280949GT in some kits) is an essential electronic component in the safety system of many Genie Boom Lifts.1 Designated as a 2650 kg/1433 lb capacity sensor, its primary function is to continuously and accurately measure the force (or load) applied to the basket/platform and/or the boom structure.3 This data is transmitted via a J1939 CAN bus protocol to the machine’s control system (LCS/Controls). The system uses this feedback to enforce the Overload Protection System (OPS), preventing the machine from operating when the load exceeds the manufacturer’s specifications, which is critical for machine stability and operator safety.

Key Features & Benefits

✅ Critical Overload Protection: Essential for the machine’s Load Sensing System (LSS) and Overload Protection System (OPS), ensuring compliance with safety standards.

✅ High Capacity Sensor: Rated for a 4650 kg/1433 lb maximum load measurement, suitable for high-capacity boom lift models (XC, Xtra Capacity).5

✅ J1939 Communication: Utilizes the robust J1939 CAN bus protocol for reliable and high-speed data transmission to the main controller.6

✅ Direct OEM Cross-Reference: Exact match for Genie part numbers 1270278GT, 1270278, and a component in the 1280949GT kit.

✅ Wide Model Fitment: Compatible with a large range of Genie S-Series (Straight), SX-Series, and Z/ZX-Series (Articulating) high-reach boom lifts.7
