❚ If the brake is used as a pure holding brake without dynamic load, the friction lining must be reactivated regularly. INTORQ | BA 14.0196 | 04/2016...
❚ If the required thread depth is not maintained, the fixing screws may run onto the root. This has the effect that the required pre-load force is no longer established – the brake is no longer securely fastened! INTORQ | BA 14.0196 | 04/2016...

If the brake is using AC-side switching, the engagement times increase approximately by a fac- tor of 5 (refer to 35 for connection). Disengagement time The disengagement time is the same for DC and AC switching. The specified disengagement times always refer to control using over-excitation. INTORQ | BA 14.0196 | 04/2016...
, the permissible amount of heat is Q Smax With high speeds of rotation and switching energy, the wear increases strongly, because very high temper- atures occur at the friction surfaces for a short time. INTORQ | BA 14.0196 | 04/2016...
The user must ensure compliance with EMC Directive 2014/30/EU using appropriate controls and switching devices. If an INTORQ rectifier is used for the DC switching of the spring-applied brake: If the switching frequency exceeds five switching operations per minute, the use of a mains filter is required.

For a new over-energizing during switch-on, it is also necessary to open switches K1/K3. ❚ The protective circuitry contained in the INTORQ switching device BEG-561- (terminals 3 and 4) is not permitted for use in the lift system. The protective circuitry must be connected parallel to the brake coil ( 36).
The bridge/half-wave rectifiers are used to supply electromagnetic DC spring-applied brakes which are ap- proved for the use with such rectifiers. Other use is only permitted with the approval of INTORQ. Once a set over-excitation time has elapsed, the bridge/half-wave rectifiers switch over from bridge rectifi- cation to half-wave rectification.
