The Ingersoll Rand “ZA” series balancer is the most common, and is designed for high speed, precision handling of variable weight loads. Up/down movement is accomplished through the use of an ergonomically designed pendant with low-effort, color coded thumb levers. After positioning the load with the pendant control, the unit defaults into a “Float” mode that allows the operator up to 18 in (457 mm) to manually adjust the load for final positioning.
