1.       ENCLOSED BODY
Spring Balancers from other suppliers are supplied with opening both in Body & Cover causing accidental crunch of operator's fingers between revolving drum and the body of the Spring Balancers. To prevent this, side windows on the body and cover have been eliminated. This would prevent industrial accidents.

2.       WIRE ARREST MECHANISM (SWA SERIES)
In the unfortunate event of accidental dislodging of the suspended weight, breakage of bottom hook / wire rope, spring tension will pull back the wire rope, resulting in whiping action likely to hurt personnel around.
This mechanism will lock the last revolving drum pulley & the wire rope assembly will be stopped with max. 20cm travel. This will prevent the whiping of wire rope assembly & avoided any injury to operator or any personnel around.

3.       BODY LINER
In order to prevent wear of the slot of the Spring Balancer body, a split type Nylon liner for wire rope has been introduced in the new design Spring Balancers.
This liner can be removed and installed on site without any need for dismantling of the wire rope.
This will prevent wear of the costly body resulting in overall saving and reduced down time of equipment.

4.       EASY ADJUSTMENT OF SPRING TENSION
In Spring Balancers from other manufactures the worm gear box for adjustment of Spring Tension worked in the horizontal axis. Gear box position has been rotated through 90 degrees so that spring tension adjustment can be made by working in vertical axis.
This will facilitate adjustment from ground level without any need to rise up to Spring Balancer hanging level. This reduces down time, facilities easy operation and reduces the chance of any mishap during an operator rising to the level of the balancer.
