Positioner Kromer 5250000001

Overview

How does a positioner work?

The Kromer 5250000001, type 5250, holds equipment weighing 2–7 kg at a chosen height using its adjustable brake. Typical applications include suspended power supply units and hand-held scanners that need to remain within reach.

Move the equipment manually to the required height; the brake holds its position. The spring rewinds the cable and is not an adjustable weight-compensating spring. Any load variation must remain within the permitted range, with an appropriate brake setting.

Positioner, balancer or retractor?

Holding applications can overlap, but the designs differ: the 5250 is adjusted through its brake, while a Tecna balancer with option F retains its weight-compensating spring. Choose according to weight, weight variation and required movement.
