CB Magnetic Brakes
• Spring Applied, Electrically Released
• 4 1/2”-10” Diameter
• 10-160 lbs./ft. Torque
• AC Solenoid Operation
• Single Phase, 60 Hertz Coils
• Asbestos Free Linings
Options
• Enclosures
• Epoxy coatings
CB AC Brakes
• Clean, simple, reliable design with the fewest parts of
any AC brake available today.
• Rugged, long life solenoid - tested in more than two
million operational cycles without electrical failure.
• Simple one-point torque adjustment.
• No separate hand release is required. The brake can be
released by light hand pressure on the solenoid arm.
• Solenoid plunger travel indicator - a mark on the
plunger indicates when the brake should be adjusted for
lining wear.
• Simple two point adjustment for lining wear.
TM Magnetic Brake
CB Magnetic Brake
TM Magnetic Brakes
• Spring Applied, Electrically Released
• AISE Rated
• 4 1/2”-30” Diameter
• 15-9000 lbs./ft. Torque
• DC Operation
• Series or Shunt Coils
• Asbestos Free Linings
Options
• Rectifiers for AC Operation
• Hand Release
• Self-Centering (TMSC Style)
• Hydraulic Over-Ride
• Limit Switches
• Enclosures
• Epoxy coatings
TM DC Brakes
Shunt or Series Wound
• Mechanically independent coils can be removed without
releasing the brake shoes. In an emergency, short-time
operation on a single coil is possible.
• Twin-magnet coils are epoxy-encapsulated for
permanent protection against dust, water, grease, oil,
chemicals, and mechanical impact (TM43 and TM63
have single coils).
• Self-aligning cast iron brake shoes are lined with long
wearing molded linings.
• Shoe travel indicator provides a positive visual check of
lining wear for quick maintenance/inspection.
• Over-the-wheel tie rod is a simple, rugged, easily
accessible linkage, permitting all adjustments from
the top. Standard TM style brakes have two easy
adjustments for lining wear and spring tension. TMSC
style brakes have a single point adjustment for lining
wear and spring tension.
• Utilized tie rod-and-spring assembly facilitates shoe
replacement. The brake can be released manually if
required.
