Solenoid Directional Valve 44171GT / 44171 (2 Position / 4 Way) – Optimized Product Page Content

🔹 Product Overview
The Solenoid Cartridge Valve with Genie part numbers 44171GT and 44171 is an essential electro-hydraulic directional control valve used in the hydraulic manifold blocks of specific Genie Scissor Lifts (GS Series). The designation $2 \text{ Pos } 4 \text{ Way}$ (2-Position, 4-Way) indicates it is a spool valve capable of controlling hydraulic flow to two cylinder or motor ports across two operational states: energized (flow to A/B) and de-energized (flow to A/B, often crossing over, or holding). This valve provides a clear ON/OFF directional switch, primarily used to control the direction of a double-acting actuator.
This valve is typically found in circuits controlling functions like Steering, Drive Direction, or Lift/Lower in certain electric scissor lift models. The part number 44171GT is the necessary replacement for addressing issues such as loss of steering or drive direction, erratic movement, or a complete failure of the controlled hydraulic function due to a damaged solenoid coil or stuck spool.
🔹 Key Features & Benefits
✅ Directional Control: Provides reliable electro-hydraulic switching for double-acting hydraulic actuators.
✅ 2-Position, 4-Way (2/4W): Standard configuration for controlling the direction of motors and cylinders (e.g., steering, lift/lower).
✅ Scissor Lift Compatibility: Essential component for specific Genie GS-series electric scissor lift hydraulic control systems.
✅ Direct OEM Cross-Reference: High-quality aftermarket equivalent for Genie part numbers 44171GT and 44171.
