Electromagnetic Brakes (for asynchronous drum motors only)

Product Description

Brakes and holds a load according to the stated belt pull.

Applications

  • For reversible inclined and declined conveyors

  • For reduced stopping times *

  • For stopping and holding loads

  • For approximate positioning *

  • Asynchronous drum motors only

  • Not for AC-PM Synchronous motors

* For faster stopping times and accurate positioning, please use a frequency converter with braking function and if necessary an encoder with feed back control.

Characteristics

  • Low-noise

  • Low-wear

  • Operated by rectifier

  • Applied to the drum motor's rotor shaft

  • When power to the motor is disrupted the brake will close (the brake is naturally closed)
