Manual
Release, Spring Applied Brake – Type FSBR
Inertia Dynamics
features a type FSBR015 spring applied brake with a manual release
lever. The brake incorporates a lever which is rotated to mechanically
engage the clapper plate. The clapper plate acts against the compression
springs and allows the armature disc to spin freely. The brake is
now free of torque. An optional microswitch is activated on the
field assembly to disconnect power to your system in case of an
accidental start-up with the brake manually released. To return
the brake to normal operation, rotate the lever to re-engage the
brake and produce torque.
Typical applications
include wheelchairs, three-wheel carts/scooters, and fractional
horsepower motors. The brake is available with a higher static torque
rating for non-dynamic braking applications where only a statically
engaged parking brake is needed.
For variations
on the manual release brake configuration, in support of high-volume
OEM applications, consult Inertia Dynamics.
CAUTION:
Inertia Dynamics recommends the use of a switch or other method
to ensure customer application using this brake is not operated
while brake is in the manually released mode.
