Counterbalance Spring Hold-Open Assembly for 28” Wide and Larger Vertical Discharge Doors, “W” Series

This counterbalance assembly is used on “W” Series, top hinged, vertical discharge doors measuring 28”w x 36”h and larger. For door sizes 36" and above order two of these assemblies. The counterbalance assembly holds the discharge door panel open when the chute is not being cleaned. This assembly consists of two 19” long springs, one 38” long sheath, two S-hooks, and one fusible link. The fusible link will melt when the ambient temperature reaches 165 degrees causing the door panel to slam shut. This is an integral part of the fire safety and labeling of the door. See attached spec's of this product before ordering.

The discharge door should remain open at all times, except when washing down the chute is necessary. Closing the door will force the water into the hopper’s built-in drain. DO NOT use the chute with the discharge door closed as the door will be damaged.
