Commissioning and operation
NOTICE
In case of high humidity: If condensed water and moisture are present, provide an appro-
priate ventilation for the brake to ensure that all friction components dry quickly.
At high humidity and low temperatures: Take measures to ensure that the armature plate
and rotor do not freeze.
7.1
operating range for the Kendrion INTORQ spring-applied brake
Important notes
DANGER
Danger: rotating parts!
¾
The brake must be free of residual torque.
¾
The drive must not be running when checking the brake.
DANGER
There is a risk of injury by electrical shock!
The live connections must not be touched.
¾
The brake is designed for operation under the environmental conditions that apply to IP00 protection.
Because of the many ways the brake can be used, it is necessary to check the functionality of all me-
chanical components under the corresponding operating conditions.
Notice
Functionality for different operating conditions
¾
The brakes are dimensioned in such a way that the specified rated torques are reached
safely after a short run-in process.
¾
Since the material properties of the friction linings are subject to fluctuations and as a re-
sult of different environmental conditions, deviations from the specified braking torque are
possible. This has to be taken into account by appropriate dimensioning of the tolerances.
Increased breakaway torque can occur in particular as an result of long standstill periods in
humid environments with varying temperatures.
