Quick Links

On this brake, the magnet coil is a separately enclosed unit mounted between an inner and outer armature. When the coil is
properly energized, the armatures are attracted to each other until their outer poles seal. The action of the armatures moves the
shoes away from the wheel. The inner armature moves the inner shoe and the outer armature moves the outer shoe. When the
coil is de-energized, the compression spring forces the armatures apart and presses the shoes against the wheel.
