BALANCER SELECTION
When choosing a balancer, a few important items should
be noted:
1. Determine if a retractor or a true balancer is required
2. Determine total cable travel needed and total weight to
be suspended, including all hose/cable, tool and fixtures
To ensure maximum life span of your balancer selection
should utilize weight range at the high end.
EXAMPLE: Total weight to be suspended is five pounds.
The application calls for a true balance. The choices are a
TW-3 (2.2~6.6 lbs) or TW-5 (5.5~11 lbs). The best choice
is the TW-3. This allows the entire spring to be utilized.
Remember: “Bigger is NOT always better!”
