INSPEcTIONS PrIOr TO STArT-UP Of THE brAKE
6 Start-up
6.1 Inspections prior to start-up of the brake
Visual inspection
• Do connection and rated voltage (nameplate) agree?
• Are external damages visible?
• Are there impurities in the functional area or foreign bodies in the air gap of the
brake?
Load-free testing
• Ensure that the brake is unloaded.
• Release/close the brake by switching the voltage supply.
ATTENTION
Do not put into operation if one of the above tests is not OK.
6.1.1 run in of the brake
ATTENTION
rated braking torque is only reached after run in of the brake.
Some dynamic braking operations must be carried out for run in of the brake. Depending
on the brake size and corresponding speed, we recommend a slip and idle time of 2
seconds each for 10 switchings.

ATTENTION
If the brake is only used as a holding brake without dynamic load,
the braking torque may drop. A new run in (refreshment) must be
done within the scope of maintenance.
