3.4 Pneumatic Brake
As an option, a brake can be attached to the linear motor. The pneumatic brake is controlled by the servo
drive. To open and close the brake, an additional electric solenoid valve is required. The brake acts on the
shaft arranged parallel to the rotor and is released by compressed air.
•
The brake has a purely holding function and is not designed to slow down or stop
dynamic movements.
•
Not to be used for safety devices!
•
Not approved as a safety element!
4 Installation Instructions
4.1 Operating Conditions
Maximum ambient temperature limits:
•
-
10 °C…80 °C
Internal temperature sensor error occurs at:
•
90 °C
Max. Installation altitude
•
The maximum installation altitude is 4,000 m above sea level.
From 1,000 m upwards, a derating of 1 °C per 100 m must be taken into account for air
cooling.
4.2 Installation Options
The PR01 linear rotary motors have a centric fit on the front side, so that an exact alignment of the rotation
axis is possible.
Mounting only via the front screws is generally not sufficient (vibrations, transverse load) and must be
supplemented by an additional support. For vibration reasons, a support as far back as possible is
preferable. See the mounting examples in the following chapter. Please note that a tolerance compensation
(see next chapter) must be provided so that the motor is not installed in the machine under tension. The
detailed mounting dimensions can be found in chapter 10 "Dimensions". The corresponding CAD files are
available in the LinMot eCatalog
