Features

  • Suspension kits

    Suspension kits are available for virtually all enclosed track manufacturers as well as I-Beam, Patent track, and hook mount. Please specify with order.

  • Standard overload protection

    The load being lifted can never exceed the unit’s maximum rated capacity at a given air pressure

  • Standard emergency cable retract brake

    If the load is accidentally lost, a spring loaded centrifugal brake automatically stops the rapid upward cable travel.

  • Optional down stop

    Eliminates the down-drift of suspended loads within 6 inches if air supply is shut down.

  • Cable travel

    Length of rope up to 30 ft with cable travel up to 120 inches depending on model and configuration.

  • Safety

    If the air supply is ever interrupted the unit will maintain the load in the suspended position.

  • Servo Assist

    Inherent frinction within the balancer is 10% of a load, the Z-Servo control addresses this issue by amplifying inputs and reducing the effort to move the load to 3-5% of the load. The servo control is supplied as standard on all BA balancers over 200 lbs.
