Electromagnetic Spring Applied Brake 4BZFM

Product catalog summary
Applications
The 4 BZFM Electromagnetic Spring-Applied Brake is engineered for offshore and industrial settings, offering high environmental protection. It is ideal for use in equipment such as windlasses, anchor winches, shipboard cranes, cargo winches, and trawler winches.
Main Features
This brake includes a coil body with thermal class 155, nitrocarburated and postoxidated components, a low wear friction lining, and high thermal capacity. It is compatible with IEC standard flanges and features stainless steel fixing screws and high protection seals.
Optional Extras
Options include a micro switch for monitoring, a terminal box, a standstill heater, and preparation for speedometer installation. Switching modules like half wave or full wave and quick switching units are also available.
Advantages
The brake offers a torque range from 63 to 11,000 Nm, easy assembly, low wear, and compatibility with consumable spares. It supports vertical mounting and provides protection up to IP67. The brake is asbestos-free and easy to maintain.
Technical Specifications
The brake operates without current and is released electromagnetically. It attaches to a motor or machine part via a flange, with the coil potted in synthetic resin. The braking effect is transmitted through a pinion and fitting key to the shaft.
Operation and Accessories
Optional accessories include a micro switch, emergency release screws, and standstill heaters. Customization with special surface finishes for abrasive environments is available.
Technical Data
Tables provide detailed specifications on torque, speed, voltage, and dimensions for various brake sizes, along with operation times and energy dissipation considerations.
Calculations and Considerations
Formulas for calculating torque, operation times, and dissipated energy are included. The document stresses the importance of considering heat capacity and energy dissipation when selecting brake sizes.
Brake Type Overview
  • Working and Emergency Brake: Describes types of brakes, including working brakes and holding brakes with emergency characteristics.
  • Calculation Data: Covers nominal and emergency braking speeds, load torque, braking operations, moment of inertia, switching cycles, ambient temperature, and protection class.
  • Options: Additional features such as microswitch, rectifier, switching unit, terminal box, and heater.

4 BZFM Electromagnetic Spring-Applied Brake M1 = switchable torque [N m] The switchable (dynamic) torque is the torque which can be transmitted by a brake under slip condition depending on the friction coecient and at working temperature. (M1 = 0, 9MSN ) M3 = synchronization torque [N m] The synchronization torque is the torque which arises for a short time after nishing the switching process . MU = transmissible torque [N m] ¨ The transmissible (static) torque is the max. torque that can be applied to a brake without the risk of slipping. MSN = switchable nominal torque [N m] The switchable...

Considerations of dissipated energy For all operations at speed with slip, dissipated energy is generated in the brake which is transformed into heat. The admissible amount of dissipated energy resp. power capacity must not be exceeded in order to avoid any inadmissible heating. Often...
