Heavy industrial applications
The balancers from the EL series are designed like the EA series balancers, but feature aratchet mechanism locking mechanism that can be selected and deselected depending on the requirements of the application. The locking mechanism is designed to fix loads up to 28 kg (62 lb) in any desired position in the rope extension range.
Automatic safety lock: Yes - force-based design
Manual safety lock: Yes
Upper suspension: 360° Pivoting
lock (ON/OFF): Yes
External voltage adjustment: Worm wheel vertical
WearGuardTM epoxy resin: Extends rope and drum life
Disengaging spring hub: Prevents damage to drive spring
Fall protection: ex works with safety chain
Maintainable: YES, with AERO-MOTIVE®-spare parts or -repair kits

Positioners are winders which, with the help of a friction brake-like design, enable the positioning of light loads at a desired height in the entire rope extension range and hold the assumed position without any further effort.
Retractors are designed to retrieve a tool or load when no force is applied to it, and to keep the attached tool or load in the desired position, a downward force must be applied continuously.
Balancers are designed to provide perfect weight balance, making a specific load appear 'weightless' at any point along the extension length.
Torque drums with a cable extension of 4.6 m (15 feet) are primarily intended for attaching control columns or panels weighing up to 6.8 kg (15 lb).
Grounding Reels provide a ground path for dissipating electrostatic charges via a cable and a ground terminal. The main drive spring not only provides an adjustable light continuous pull on the rope, but also the force for the automatic rope return.
