50287827 Oil Pressure Switch for Jungheinrich CD/CL 16-20
Overview
The 50287827 Switch, Oil pressure is a Jungheinrich replacement component for the CD/CL 16-20 forklift range. The oil pressure switch continuously monitors lubrication pressure in the engine and triggers the warning lamp when pressure falls below the safe threshold. If the switch fails, the operator may lose this early-warning function, leaving the engine exposed to damage from undetected lubrication problems. Fitting a correct 50287827 for CD series trucks restores reliable monitoring and helps protect both the machine and your maintenance budget.
Compatibility
This oil pressure switch is specified for Jungheinrich counterbalance trucks in the CD/CL 16-20 series, covering the 1.6 t and 2.0 t capacity classes. Typical applications include:
- Jungheinrich CD 16 C
- Jungheinrich CD 20 C
- Jungheinrich CD/CL 16-20 series trucks
Because fitment can vary with year of manufacture and chassis configuration, always check that 50287827 matches the part number in your truck’s parts manual or on the existing switch before ordering. No separate OEM cross-reference is needed: order directly by the Jungheinrich part number 50287827. If you are unsure, our team can help you confirm the correct fit.
Quality and Reliability
As a Jungheinrich-designated part, the 50287827 oil pressure switch is built to the dimensional and electrical requirements of the original component. The correct thread size, sealing surfaces and connector geometry allow a straightforward replacement, while accurate pressure activation ensures the warning lamp responds exactly as the manufacturer intended. Ordering by the specified part number rather than a look-alike alternative reduces the risk of false alarms, missed warnings and oil leaks around the switch port.
Installation and Maintenance Tips
- Disconnect the battery and let the engine cool before starting work.
- Locate the oil pressure switch on the engine block and clean the surrounding area so dirt cannot enter the oil circuit.
- Remove the old switch, compare it with the new 50287827 unit, and fit the replacement using the correct sealing method.
- Reconnect the electrical connector firmly and inspect the wiring for damage or corrosion.
- Run the engine and confirm the oil pressure warning lamp behaves correctly, then check the switch port for leaks.
- Include the switch in periodic service checks, since a sluggish or seized switch can mask genuine lubrication faults.
