Installation
Prior to installation, refer to Product Safety Information Manual for all sections of installation.
Refer to Figure A and Figure B on page 2.
1. To mount the ZG balancer, use brackets provided.
2. Connect air supply line to main air inlet using a 3/8" coupling.
3. Use 10 mm pipe for pneumatic connection.
4. Connect power cord to the controller.
Note: Power supply 100-150 V AC, 50-400Hz.
Handle Installation
Refer to Figure C on page 2.
1. For load hook installation and lash up instructions, refer to the balancer Installation Manual 47646669001.
2. Install the control handle inline with the wire rope and the load.
Handle Connection
Refer to Figure D on page 2.
1. Connect the handle eye bolt to the wire rope eyelet.
2. Connect the electric spiral wire to the electronic box.
3. Connect the electric spiral wire to the plug on the top of the handle.
4. Tighten the ring clockwise for a secure connection.
Turn ON Power
Refer to Figure E on page 2.
5. Switch ON the controls using the power switch on the main box.
a. To disengage the operation, press the Emergency Stop Button located on the top of the handle.
6. Do not touch the control handle during initialization of the controller kit.
7. Release the Emergency Stop Button by rotating clockwise until it pops.
8. Push the power button (green) on the handle to begin operation.
Deflate the Chamber
Refer to Figure F on page 2.
9. Three yellow lights indicate completion of initialization of the controller. When lit, pull down sleeve of the handle to deflate the chamber.
Operation
1.
Press Emergency Stop button to
2. Make sure electrical wiring to the ZG balancer conforms to all relevant safety codes and regulations.
3. Make sure all electrical connections are secure before applying power.
●
Before performing maintenance, securely tag the controls with a warning label stating: 'WARNING - DO NOT OPERATE -
EQUIPMENT BEING REPAIRED'
Standard Operation
Refer to Figure G on page 2.
Red light stays ON for two seconds immediately after powering up the ZG balancer. During this time, load cell and the handle sensor resting
values are calculated by the controller. When the red light turns OFF, the ZG balancer is ready for operation. If the resting values of the handle
and load cell sensors are out of expected range, red light flashes rapidly. During this state, the ZG balancer is not able to operate.
Float Mode
Engage Float Mode
To engage float mode, release the handle. Float mode will be triggered by lack of contact with the handle. While float mode is engaging, red
light will appear on the ZG balancer. Do not touch the handle while the controller is calculating load. Float mode is engaged and calculation
completes when three yellow lights appear on the controller.
Do not apply force on the load (upward/downward) while float mode is calculating as this will cause faulty calculation of the weight and drift
of the load.
Move loads up and down by acting direclty on the load itself.
Disengage Float Mode
Float mode disengages automatically once the handle is touched resulting in yellow lights on the controller to turn OFF. When yellow lights
turn OFF, use the handle sleeve to move load upward/downward.
Configuration Tool
This is a windows application which communicates with the controller over USB serial port and helps the user to change settings and
enable/disable the ZG balancer features.
