TECNA 9346LAX ATEX-certified retractor tool balancer — 1.1–4.41 lbs (0.5–2 kg) capacity over a 98.43-in. (2500 mm) stroke. Stainless steel rope; cast aluminum body; entirely conductive, grounded, spark-proof construction certified to II 2G Ex h IIC T6 Gb. Equipped with a stroke-stop device that locks the cable at the desired length.
The TECNA 9346LAX is an ATEX-certified retractor balancer for tool suspension in potentially explosive atmospheres. A retractor supports the weight of a suspended tool and retracts the cable to a rest height when the tool is released, reducing operator fatigue and keeping the tool clear of the work area between uses. AtEx certification requires the balancer to be entirely conductive, grounded, and built from spark-proof materials so it can be used safely around flammable gases, vapours, or combustible dusts. The 9346LAX is certified to II 2G Ex h IIC T6 Gb, suitable for use in ATEX-designated hazardous areas matching that classification. The 9346LAX carries a load capacity of 1.1–4.41 lbs (0.5–2 kg) over a working stroke of 98.43 in. (2500 mm), with a stainless steel rope and cast aluminum body. The 9346LAX/9346AX–9350AX series adds a stroke-stop device that locks the cable at a desired length via a simple operation on the load — useful where the tool needs to stay at a fixed working position.
