INSTALLATION

Use of commercial grade (Grade 2)
fasteners where Grade 8 fasteners
are specified may result in failure of
the fasteners and a sudden and 
drastic reduction in brake torque.

Only qualified maintenance person-
nel should install, adjust or repair
these units. Faulty workmanship
will result in unreasonable expo-
sure to hazardous conditions or
personal injury.

Read these instructions thoroughly
and review until you fully under-
stand the installation sequence 
before proceeding with the work 
described in this section. Failure to
follow these instructions will result
in unreasonable exposure to hazard-
ous conditions or personal injury.

Do not paint the clamp tubes (12) or
the springs (34) as shown on Figure
1, as this may hinder the engage-
ment or disengagement of the brake.

NOTE: Airflex recommends guarding the
brake application. The guard should cover
the face and the entire outer diameter of the
unit.

Preparation

2.1.1

Figure 1 shows the relationship between the
brake mounting surface and the end of the
gear (dimension ".38" on Figure 1). The gear
is bored and keyed for a resulting Class
FN2S interference fit for inch shafting and
ISO System S7h6 for metric shafting.

2.1.2

Figure 2 show the mounting dimensions for
the brake to the machine frame or reaction
bracket.
