WBA4-90
2Pages

The WBA4-90 has been specifically designed to meet the exacting requirements of Wind Turbine yaw and rotor braking applications, where high braking and holding torques are required over long operational periods. The WBA4-90 is constructed from ductile cast iron, has two symmetrical halves each containing two 90mm diameter pistons, and features a proprietary piston seal and protection boot design. This unique combination of features ensures that the WBA4-90 provides reliable long term operation over extremes of environmental conditions, and simplified in-service inspection and maintenance for the duration of the Wind Turbine’s lifetime. Key Features • Hydraulically applied brake • Carlisle NoiseFree organic (non-asbestos) linings • Large brake lining area for reduced wear and operating temperatures • Grooved and tapered linings for improved performance and lifetime • Hydraulic drain ports to prevent oil contamination on the brake disc • Small air gap (between disc and lining) for minimum brake reaction time • Few moving parts for increase lifetime and easy maintenance • Suitable for horizontal or vertical installation • -40°C to 70°C operational range brakes wind turbine experienced, global, reliable Customer Options • Lining retraction springs for dynamic applications • Sintered linings for high energy applications • Thrust plates for faster lining replacement • Concave and convex linings available • Extreme cold climate (-50°C) version • Offshore version available • Fully customised caliper designs available WBA4-90 Active Hydraulic Disc Brake
