Ingersoll Rand Equal Air (EA) Series (Zimmerman) Balancers are used for handling multiple (up to 3) loads within a 40 lb. (18.1 kg) weight range without the need to adjust the controls. When the pendant is in the LO- and UN-LOAD position, balancer air pressure is released to allow the lighter loads to be in balance. When the pendant is in the HI-LOAD position, no pressure is released, and the heaviest load can be balanced. These pneumatic balancers are ideally suited for applications where up to 3 load sizes are frequently lifted, and operator hands-on the part is required. The UN-LOAD position is also often used for handling device balancing (loaded/unloaded).
RELIABILITY: Features include precise positioning, a pre-lubricated piston chamber, intuitive speed control, and continuous duty operation.
SAFETY:
Standard emergency cable retract brakes mean that if your load is accidentally lost, a spring-loaded centrifugal brake automatically stops the rapid upward cable travel.
If the air supply is ever interrupted, the unit will maintain the load in the suspended position.
The load being lifted can never exceed the unit’s maximum rated capacity at a given air pressure, providing intrinsic overload protection.
The optional Z-stop eliminates the down-drift of suspended loads within 6 inches (152 mm) if air supply is shut down.
PRODUCTIVITY: Gain flexibility, with ultra-low air consumption, clean oil free operation, and cable travels of up to 120 inches depending on model.
Suspension kits are available for virtually all enclosed track manufacturers, as well as I-beam, Patented/Hardened track, and Hook mounted configurations
Rotary thumb switch pendant selects HI-LOAD, LO-LOAD, or NO-LOAD setting
