The brand and its applications

The Kromer range distinguishes a retractor, which returns the tool towards its resting position, from a balancer intended to offset its weight within the working area. Positioners address a holding-position requirement. ATEX, ESD and Rust-free versions are selected separately.

Ranges to compare

Retractors

To clear the workstation after tool use. Compare return behaviour and stroke for each version.

View models

82 series balancers

To offset tool weight during work, with different capacities and strokes. Check relationships with 72-series versions using the full reference.

View models

Pneumatic hose versions

Combined suspension and air supply. Hose dimensions and pressure are part of the selection criteria.

View models

ATEX balancers

For explosive atmospheres, according to the exact marking and selected configuration.

View models

Rust-free versions

For workstations with specific material requirements. Check suitability for your cleaning process.

View models

ESD versions

For electrostatic discharge control at the workstation, separately from any ATEX requirement.

Choose for your workstation

For repeated tasks, specify whether the tool should remain within reach or retract after use. Total load includes couplings and the suspended hose. For a cleanroom, provide the required class, cleaning and materials: Rust-free and Cleanroom are not interchangeable designations.

Frequently asked questions

Balancer or retractor?

Choose a balancer to offset weight in the working area, or a retractor to return the tool after use. Check this behaviour on the product page, beyond the capacity in kilograms.

How do I select a cleanroom model?

Specify the required class, cleaning agents, permitted materials, load and stroke. A Rust-free designation alone does not establish suitability for a cleanroom class.

What is needed to replace an older Kromer?

Provide the complete nameplate reference, load range, stroke and fitted devices. Do not infer equivalence from the 72 or 82 reference prefix alone.
