that will eliminate the down-drift of suspended
loads or tools during shut down or at night when
the air supply is shut off. The Z Stop will stop drift
within 6 inches (152.4 mm) and put the Balance
Air into a mechanically locked position preventing
damage to tools or objects below the suspended

Selection Tips:
Actual operating capacity is determined by available plant air pressure. Working load includes part weight and handling device weight
Operating capacity decreases 1% for every 1 psi below 100 psi plant air IC control option includes force sensing load cell which must be mounted

Error-proof assembly:
The device digitally displays the weight of the
part picked up. Device will not allow the operator
to move the part if not clamped properly. The key
allows the operator the ability to lock the device.
Allows 100 percent visual inspection of the
assembly.
