27315400 Valve, Load Control for Jungheinrich EJC Trucks
Overview
The 27315400 Valve, Load Control is a hydraulic control valve specified for Jungheinrich electric pedestrian and stacker trucks. Mounted in the lift hydraulic circuit, it regulates oil flow during lowering and holds the load securely at height. When this valve wears or malfunctions, operators often notice the mast drifting down under load, jerky or uncontrolled lowering, or uneven lowering speed — symptoms that compromise both safety and productivity. Replacing a faulty load control valve with the correct 27315400 part restores precise, metered lowering and dependable load-holding performance.
Compatibility

Jungheinrich trucks were built in several production stages, so we recommend verifying your truck’s model designation and serial or fabrication number against the valve currently fitted before ordering. Not sure whether the 27315400 Valve, Load Control matches your truck? Our support team is happy to help you confirm fitment.
Quality and Reliability
This replacement valve is manufactured to match the functional specifications of the original Jungheinrich component, including flow rate, cracking pressure and load-holding behavior. The precision-machined valve seat meters lowering speed smoothly, preventing the mast from dropping abruptly and keeping loads stable at height. Stable hydraulic performance also reduces strain on the lift cylinders and pump, helping surrounding hydraulic components last longer. The 27315400 Valve, Load Control is built to deliver consistent, repeatable performance through frequent daily lift and lower cycles.
Installation and Maintenance Tips
Replacing a load control valve is a manageable job for a trained technician:
- Lower the forks completely, depressurize the hydraulic system and disconnect the battery before starting work.
- Clean the area around the valve thoroughly so no dirt enters the hydraulic circuit when lines are opened.
- Mark hose and fitting positions, replace worn O-rings and seals, and tighten connections to the specified torque.
- After installation, bleed air from the hydraulic circuit and test lowering with a light load to confirm smooth, controlled movement.
- Inspect hydraulic oil condition at the same time — contaminated or degraded oil is a common cause of premature valve wear.
