| 1. | automotive sector to suspend the portable pneumatic tools. Normal area of use is engine assembly, 2-wheeler assembly, tv & vcr assembly, refrigerators, washing machine, body shop of cars, fabrication shops, chassis assembly of cars, tractors, jeeps, etc. | | | 2. | to suspend welder guns. | | 3. | to suspend spray guns, shot blasting guns. | | 4. | to suspend drifting attachments in mines and quarries, jute & synthetic bag closing machines. | | 5. | to suspend gauges, jigs & fixtures, pendant station, switch button of hoists. | | 6. | in case of de-oxidation, water washing of plating work with raising & lowering of work, etc. | criteria of selection for the best suitable model: | | select the correct model for the weight of tools or instruments, which will be hung. Weight means total weight i.e. Tool + cable + hose + other accessories. For example, if the weight of the tool is 14 kg and the weight of the accessory is 3 kg totaling to a weight of 17 kg, so you should select the range of 15 - 22 kg (part no. Tusb - 1522). if the total weight is on the border of 2 models, select the larger model since this will benefit you as the balancer will have a longer life.
instructions to use spring balancer: | | 1. | mount the balancer such that they do not collide with the structure. | | 2. | keep the balancers uneven such that they do not collide with each other. | | 3. | attach the secondary support cable or chain to follow the moving of tools. | | 4. | adjust the main spring tension to be appropriate to the weight of the tool hung. | | 5. | the main spring tension should be set in the middle of its capacity. For increasing the tension turn the worm clockwise and for decreasing the tension turn the worm anti-clockwise. | | 6. | for maximum operator efficiency and balancer life the load balancer should always be mounted directly over the work area, with the load perpendicular to the floor when in use. Working with the load not perpendicular caused operator fatigue and excessive wear and tear on the balancer cable and drum. If it is necessary to continually move the balancer and tool from one position to another, a system of trolleys and runaways can be used. It is strongly recommended that all balancers be mounted overhead having a secondary support chain attached, to prevent the possibility of the balancer accidentally falling. The length of the chain should be kept to the absolute minimum. | the advantage & specialty of tulex spring balancers against others: | | tulex 'tusb' series of spring balancers are specially designed to free the operator from carrying the weight of the tools. The tools can be pulled down with least force, without any strain and fatigue. Handling of the tool becomes very easy as the load and pressure required for a particular operation is counter balanced in the mechanism of the spring balancer itself. The operation is free from gravitational force. | | | housing of spring balancer: | | the main housing and cover is pressure die cast or gravity die cast from superior grade aluminum for maximum resistance against impact loads and handling ease. Upper support assembly is solid steel and in full contact with the steel support pins that attaches it to the housing. The cables are stranded steel cables. | | | tapered and straight cable drum models: | | the first few lightweight models have the modern straight cable drum design. The heavier models have the unique tapered cable drum design, which matches the middle turns of spring where the torque build up is constant. This design provides smooth, even cable tension throughout the entire length of the rope travel. | | | external tension adjustment arrangement: | | no special tools are required to adjust the external tension. This can be easily done and is accessible from the floor. The tension can be set at the exact requirement through a hardened worm gear system. | | | top hook: | | top hook allows full 360 degrees swivel rotation. This positions the balancer for the easiest cable flow and thus prolongs the cable rope life. | | | containerized main spring: | | part numbers tusb-1522 to tusb-100120 comes with complete containerized (cartridge type) main spring. This eliminates the need for maintenance personnel to handle the springs which are loose and dangerous. | | | automatic drum lock: | | if the spring tension declines sharply an automatic locking mechanism immediately engages preventing the load from falling. | | | manual drum lock: | | cables and tools can be changes easily by engaging the manual drum lock. After tools or cable has been replaced - with full load attached, manual drum lock can be released. Never release manual drum lock without attaching full load. This can be done on the job site in a matter of minutes, without removing tension on the balancer cable. This convenience makes change over safe, simple and quick reducing costly downtime. | | | | | | | |
