The "Cap Balancer Type T" is a spring-loaded hinge that allows the top-opening lid to remain stationary at any angle, achieving a free stop. It not only improves work efficiency by reducing the force required to open and close the lid but also enhances safety. With waterproof functionality, it is used not only in chemical plants but also in pharmaceutical and food factories where thorough washing is necessary. Additionally, the cap balancer can be retrofitted, allowing it to be installed on existing manholes. 【Features】 ■ Heavy lids can be opened and closed easily, and the lid can be held at any desired angle. ■ Can be retrofitted to existing manholes. ■ The spring case is waterproof. ■ Installation and adjustment methods are the same as conventional cap balancers. ■ Shock absorbers can be installed to mitigate impacts when fully opened (Type TS). ■ A pin to prevent the lid from falling during maintenance can be installed (Type TS). ■ Removable types are available (Type TS).

The cap balancer is a spring-loaded hinge that utilizes the power of a spring to easily open and close heavy lids. The "Free Stop Type" allows the lid to be held in a wide range of open positions, enabling safer opening and closing operations. The Free Stop Type cap balancer achieves the ability to hold the lid in a wide open position by balancing the lid's torque with the spring's torque through a combination of a torsion coil spring and a unique link mechanism. We offer a rich lineup, including the model "TT-2," which has a lid torque range of 16–20 N.m (1630–2040 kgf.mm), as well as the "TS-18," which can accommodate heavy lids weighing around 40 kg. 【Features】 ■ Safely and easily open and close heavy top-opening lids weighing 5 kg to 40 kg ■ Capable of holding the lid in a wide range of open positions ■ Torque adjustment is stepless within the torque range, simply by turning a screw ■ The spring case is waterproof and can be cleaned *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Pressure vessels and tank lids are often heavy, making opening and closing operations difficult. Tightening and releasing the lids with bolts and clamps also requires time and effort. Additionally, performing these operations in poor footing conditions can lead to accidents with just one misstep. Kantech offers products that enable safe and easy opening and closing operations for pressure vessels and tank lids. 【Cap Balancer】 Heavy top-opening lids, such as those on pressure vessels and tanks, can be opened and closed easily, reducing the burden on workers and improving safety. The 'Cap Balancer Type T', which achieves free stop, allows the lid to be held at any desired opening angle, enabling safer operation. 【One-Touch Opening and Closing Device】 The 'One-Touch Opening and Closing Device' is a boltless and clamp-less locking mechanism that can tighten and release the lids of manholes and handholes. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

The "Cap Balancer" is a spring-loaded hinge that allows for the easy and safe opening and closing of heavy lids on production equipment in chemical, pharmaceutical, and food factories. Since its launch, it has been implemented in many chemical, pharmaceutical, and food factories both domestically and internationally. With a rich lineup, it accommodates manual opening and closing of lids ranging from lightweight 10 kg to heavy lids exceeding 200 kg. A lid holder to prevent the lid from falling is also available as an option. Depending on the torque of the cover or lid, you can choose the most suitable product from the B-type or F-type lineup. 【Features】 ■ Can be attached to various lids due to a rich lineup ■ Easy disassembly and assembly due to a simple structure ■ Waterproof models with sealed spring case are also available *You can download the instruction manual and product assembly diagram from "PDF Download." Please feel free to contact us with any inquiries.

The "One-Touch Opening and Closing Device" is a lock mechanism that tightens and releases the lids of manholes and handholes using a boltless clamp press. Operation is as simple as turning the handle. The tightening and releasing of the lid can be performed using multiple hooks linked to the handle. Compared to using clamps or bolts, it significantly reduces work time. 【Features】 ■ Operable by simply turning the handle ■ Pressure: FV to 0.2 MPa ■ Easy installation of opening and closing device components (only 10 bolts and 3 pins required) *You can download the instruction manual and product assembly diagram from the "PDF Download" section. Please feel free to contact us with any inquiries.

The "Cap Balancer" is installed by welding the upper hinge to the flange of the manhole cover and the lower hinge to the flange on the manhole body. If the welded parts of the cap balancer do not interfere with the manhole's tightening bolts, standard installation will be performed. However, if there is interference, adjustments such as extending the arm will be necessary. Additionally, if the arm is extended, the distance from the center of gravity of the manhole cover to the axis of the cap balancer shaft (the length of the arm) will increase, resulting in a greater torque required for opening and closing the cover. 【Method for Calculating Arm Length】 ■ Arm Length = Center of Gravity Distance + Installation Distance "Center of Gravity Distance": Half of the outer diameter of the cover flange (If the center of gravity is eccentric, calculations are necessary) "Installation Distance": Varies depending on the installation method of the cap balancer *For more details, please feel free to contact us.
