  • Page 3: Safety Instructions

    SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS To ensure safe and problem free installation of the magnetic particle brake device, the brake must be properly transported and stored, professionally installed and placed in operation. Proper operation and maintenance will ensure a long service life of the device. Only persons who are acquainted with the installation, commissioning, operation and maintenance of the system and who possess the necessary qualifications for their activities may work on the magnetic particle brake.
  • Page 4: Installation And Commissioning

    Safety information continued INSTALLATION AND COMMISSIONING:  Any brake device which is damaged must not be installed or put into operation.  Only perform installation, maintenance or repair tasks on the brake device when the machine has been stopped and is secured from being turned on. ...
  • Page 5: Theory Of Operation

    THEORY OF OPERATION The brake construction consists of two stators, a rotor, a coil assembly, magnetic powder, and two bearings. The bearings support and align the rotor with the stators, and allow the rotor to rotate within the brake assembly. The magnetic powder occupies the space between the stators and the rotor, and represents a key element in the operation of the brake.
  • Page 6: Electrical Installation

    5. Attach a torque arm between the extension bolt(s) and the machine frame with a “loose” or “floating” mount to prevent binding forces on the brake bearings. The torque arm will prevent the rotation of the brake stators. Tighten the mounting bolts to the torque specified in table 2. lb-in 28.1 97.2...

  • Page 11 RE-ASSEMBLY CAUTION – Loss of torque due to grease or oil. Re-assembly of the brake must be performed in a clean, dry area. The brake components must be cleaned with solvent, and must be dry and totally free of grease and oil. Grease or oil on the internal brake parts will cause loss of torque.
  • Page 12 Press the other bearing onto the end of the rotor shaft until it seats against the internal snap ring of the right stator. NOTE: The seal side of the bearing must face the inside of the brake. Tighten the stator screws evenly until the left and right stators are clamped together. Apply 2 or 3 drops of wicking Loctite to the inner and outer race of both bearings.
