Ingersoll Rand BHD-30 Heavy-Duty Spring Balancer is designed to support heavier tools and manufacturing equipment during repetitive vertical movement in assembly, production, service, maintenance, and MRO applications. It provides a 55–66 lbs load capacity and 6.5 ft lift, helping counter the weight of supported equipment so operators can raise and lower compatible loads with minimal effort along the cable travel. Ingersoll Rand describes the B Series as providing a gravity-free suspension effect for supported tools.
The BHD-30 is part of the BHD Series and has a listed 25.4 lbs balancer weight. It uses a stainless-steel cable with an anti-friction cable guide and an aluminum housing. The heavy-duty series also incorporates precision-guided cable winding, worm-screw capacity adjustment, a spring drum assembly, a safety device against load dropping due to spring breakage, and an upper rotary suspension with safety hook.
