pneumatic balancers 50 to 2000 lbs 22 to 909 kg capacity the strength behind material handling technology meeting the needs of today s material handling applications requires an ergonomic lift assist that interacts with the operator the balancer offers lifting solutions to meet these needs through float and built in safety features balancer advantage precise strain-free positioning ­ float leaves both hands free to raise lower or shift the load with virtually no resistance no more hoist control hit-and-miss spotting simple adjustment ­ clear access to air-flow calibration controls allows quick easy adjustment of the float low air consumption ­ approximately 1/8 cfm required per cycle 50 times less than an air hoist means very low energy costs clean oil-free operation ­ pre-lubricated design ­ eliminates air line lubrication and oil mist exhaust it s ideal for food processing and clean manufacturing environments rugged reliability ­ for continuous duty with minimal maintenance the balance air delivers cost effective performance balancer with za pendent control safety is standard built-in overload protection ­ the load being lifted can never exceed the unit s maximum rated capacity for a given air pressure maximum capacity is rated at 100 psig and actual capacity is linearly proportional to actual pressure for example at 70 psig the unit can only lift up to 70 of its maximum capacity minimal cable recoil due to loss of load ­ if the load is accidentally lost a spring-loaded centrifugal brake z brake automatically stops rapid upward cable travel balancers versatile configuration wide range of capacities ­ balancers are rated from 50 to 2,000 pounds 22 to 909 kg maximum with lower capacity units adjustable for loads as low as 2 pounds 9 kg tandem units handle larger loads added protection ­ the optional z stop offers protection against the drifting of loads in the event the main air supply is lost cable travel ­ the range of up/down movement varies from 40 to 120 inches 1016 to 3048 mm depending on the model controls ­ za pendant controls let you handle varying loads a ba single balance control is ideal for a constant load and an ea for 2 loads mounting ­ suspension kits for ingersoll-rand and other enclosed track manufacturers as well as i-beam patented track and hook mount ce certification ­ meets the requirements for the european community z stop the optional z stop is a patent pending device that will eliminate the downdrift of suspended loads or tools during shut down or at night when the air supply is shut off the z stop will stop drift within 6 inches 152.4 mm and put the balance air into a mechanically locked position preventing damage to tools or objects below the suspended load available for use on all 10 inch 254 mm diameter units available in 6.5 inch 165.1 mm and 10 inch 254 mm can sizes 17
