. Operating principle:
On starting the motor, the internal magnetic field opens the brake by lifting the conical plate from the
friction surface at the bottom of the motor.
On stopping the motor, the magnetic field disappears. The central spring closes the brake again by
bringing the conical panel back into contact with the motor's rear flange.
