Balancer has safety system

By Staff -- Modern Materials Handling, 7/1/1999

Equipped with a float capability that makes loads virtually weightless, a pneumatic balancer allows operators to position loads up to 600 lb easily and precisely by hand. This feature reduces operator fatigue and increases productivity. Should a load be released accidentally, a control system immediately stops the rapid upward movement of the chain and attachments, thus preventing possible injury. The unit has a 100% duty cycle with its pneumatic power source furnishing unlimited start/stop cycles.
