Introduction

Warner Electric Electrically Released Brakes function
on the same principle of “response to magnetic
attraction” that operates other Warner Electric
brakes and clutches. Braking torque in these brakes
depends on ceramic permanent magnets which
have a high resistance to demagnetization. With the

power off, the unit produces full braking torque. The
brake is released by generating an electromagnetic
field which opposes the field produced by the
permanent magnets. An adjustable voltage or
current control should be used to achieve best
release.
