The Ingersoll Rand BSD-90 Super Duty Spring Balancer with Safety Hook is designed to support heavier power tools and manufacturing equipment where repetitive or prompt vertical movement of a fixed load is required. It provides a 176–198 lbs load capacity and 8.2 ft lift, helping compensate for the weight of supported equipment so operators can move compatible loads with less effort along the cable travel.
The BSD-90 is part of the BSD Series and has a listed 63.5 lbs balancer weight. It uses an aluminum housing and stainless-steel cable, with a dimension type B configuration. The BSD Series includes gravity-free suspension capability, a safety device against load dropping due to spring breakage, upper rotary suspension with safety hook, a locking device to block the load at any height, adjustable stroke limiting, an anti-friction cable guide, precision-guided cable winding, and visible cable for inspection.

- Industrial MRO workstations using equipment within the balancer's rated capacity.
- Workstations requiring an extended 8.2 ft vertical range for suspended tools or equipment.
FAQs:
- Q: What is the load capacity of the BSD-90?
A: The BSD-90 is specified for loads from 176 to 198 lbs. - Q: How much lift does the BSD-90 provide?
A: The BSD-90 provides 8.2 ft of vertical lift, equivalent to 2,500 mm. - Q: What is the weight of the BSD-90 balancer?
A: The manufacturer lists the BSD-90 balancer weight as 63.5 lbs. - Q: Does the BSD-90 include a safety hook?
A: Yes. The BSD-90 uses an upper rotary suspension with a safety hook. - Q: Can the BSD-90 hold a supported load at a selected height?
A: Yes. The BSD Series includes a locking device designed to block the load at any height. - Q: What is the purpose of the visible cable?
A: The visible cable allows the cable condition to be inspected during use. - Q: Can the BSD-90 support more than 198 lbs?
A: No. The specified load capacity is 176–198 lbs, so the complete supported load should remain within that range.
