2 Safety information

2.1 Personnel responsible for safety

Operators
• An operator is any natural or legal person who uses the spring-operated brake or on whose
behalf the spring-operated brake is used.
• The operator or the safety personnel must ensure
– that all relevant regulations, instructions, notes and laws will be maintained.
– that only qualified personnel works on and with the spring-operated brake,
– that the Operating Instructions are always available
– that unqualified personnel is not allowed to work on and with the spring-operated brake.

Qualified personnel
Qualified personnel are persons who, because of their training, experience and knowledge of all
applicable standards and regulations as well as of all operating circumstances, have been entitled
by the person responsible for the system to work on and with the system and to see and avoid all
possible dangers.
(Definition for qualified personnel to IEC 364)

2.2 General safety information

• These safety notes do not claim to be complete. If any questions or problems occur, please
contact your INTORQ representative.
• The spring-operated brakes met the state of the technology at the time of delivery and are
generally safe to operate.
• Spring-operated brakes endanger persons, the spring-operated brakes themselves and other
properties of the user if
– unqualified personnel works on and with spring-operated brakes.
– spring-operated brakes are used inappropriately.
• Spring-operated brakes must be planned in a way that if correctly installed and used for their
designed purpose in fault-free operation, their function is fulfilled and no risk to persons
arises. This also applies to clutches and brakes integrated into a drive system.
• Operate the spring-operated brake only when it is in perfect condition.
• Retrofittings, modifications or changes of the spring-operated brake are generally forbidden.
In any case, INTORQ GmbH & Co. KG. must be contacted before.
• The friction lining and the friction surfaces must by no means have contact to oil or grease
since even small amounts reduce the brake torque considerably.
• The brake torque will usually not be influenced if the brake is used under the environmental
conditions that apply to IP54. Because of the numerous possibilities of using the brake it is
however necessary to check the functionality of all mechanical components under the
corresponding application conditions.

Fig. 1 Design of a INTORQ BFK466-55 spring-operated brake with noise damping

3.1.1 General
The INTORQ BFK466-55 spring-operated brake is designed as a floating caliper for mounting on
direct drive motors. The brake disc is not included in the scope of supply. By using two or more
spring-operated brakes on one brake disc the demand for redundancy can be fulfilled for special
applications as lift and stage technology.
The brake torque is generated by the pressure of several compression springs (8) via friction
locking between both friction linings (11) of the armature plate (7) and flange (3) and the brake
disc. The brake is released electromagnetically. The suitable switching device rectifies the
supply voltage (AC voltage) and decreases it after a short time when the brake is released. Thus
a reduction of the medium electrical brake power is reached. As an option, the switching device
can be installed into the terminal box.
The INTORQ BFK466 spring-operated brake is designed for converting mechanical work and
kinetic energy into heat energy at running speeds up to 12m/s. Thanks to the static breakaway
torque loads can be held without speed difference.
Emergency braking at higher speeds is possible. Here, the maximum permissible speed (see
chapter 3.2) must not be exceeded.
The stator (1) is designed to be of thermal class F. The limit temperature of the coils is 155°C.

10 BA INTORQ BFK466-55 EN 2.0 i

 Technical data

3.1.2 Braking
During braking the armature plate (7) with the affixed friction lining is pressed against the axially
fixed brake disc. Nearly at the same time the caliper moves on the guide sleeves (9) in the
opposite direction, so that the friction lining on the flange (3) is pressed against the brake disc,
too. The braking torque depends on how strong the guide sleeves (9) are tightened to the
mounting flange. The asbestos-free friction linings ensure a high brake torque with low wear.

3.1.3 Release
When the brake is applied, there is an air gap “sLü” between the armature plate (7)and the pole faces
of the stator”. The switching device supplies the coils of the stator (1) with DC voltage to release the
brake. The resulting magnetic force draws the armature plate (7) against the spring force towards
the pole faces of the stator (1). The caliper can move on the guide sleeves (9) until the brake disc
(2) is relieved and can rotate freely again.

3.1.4 Emergency release

Optionally a hand release (4) is available for short-term release of the brake. It serves to lower the
load in the event of a power failure.

3.1.5 Release monitoring

The INTORQ BFK466 spring-operated brake is equipped with a microswitch (changeover contact)
which monitors the switching state. During the brake release the microswitch (10)changes over. This
means that the operation of the drive against the closed brake can be excluded.

The transition from a state free of braking torque to one of steady braking torque is not
immediate. The engagement times apply to switching on the DC side with a spark suppressor at
induction voltages of approx. 5 to 10 times of rated voltage. The diagram (Fig. 2) shows the
response delay during engagement t11, the rise time of the brake torque t 12 and the engagement
time 11 = t 11 + t 12, and the disengagement time t 2.

Disengagement time:
The disengagement time is not affected by DC or AC switching.

Engagement time
Short engagement times are absolutely necessary for emergency braking. DC switching together
with a suitable spark suppressor must therefore be provided.
If the drive system includes a frequency inverter so that the brake is de-energised only when the
motor is at standstill, switching on the AC side is also possible (not valid for emergency braking).
In this case, engagement times will be five times longer.

3.5 Emissions
Heat
As the brake converts kinetic energy as well as mechanical and electrical work into heat, the surface
becomes hot depending on the operating conditions and possible heat dissipation. Under
unfavourable operating conditions, a surface temperature of 130_C can be reached.

Noises
The switching noise during engagement and disengagement varies dependent on the air gap “sLü“.
It is between approx. 60 to 65 db (A).

Others
The abrasion from emergency stop braking will be visible as dust.
In case of high load the friction faces will become so hot that odour nuisance may occur.

1. Remove two bridges from the motor terminals. Do not switch off the voltage supply for the
brakes.
2. Measure the AC voltage at the motor terminals. It must be zero.
3. Switch on the current for the brake.
4. Measure the AC voltage at the motor terminals. It must be equal to the mains voltage.
5. Control the air gap “sLü“ between the brake disc and friction lining. Altogether it must amount
to 0.4±0.1 mm. The brake disc must rotate freely.
6. Turn off the power supply.
7. Screw the bridges onto the motor terminals.

5.1.2 Hand release

The mounted hand release is designed for operation via Bowden cable. The support at the
spring-operated brake serves to hang up the Bowden cable. For operation without a Bowden cable
the lever must be extended to a total length of approx. 500 mm.

Warning!
The brake must be free of torque. The motor must not run!

1. Pull at the lever with approx. 800 N (with extension approx. 200 N) until the resistance rises
sharply.
2. The rotor must rotate freely. A small residual torque is permissible.
3. Release the lever.

 Maintenance

6 Maintenance/repair

6.1 Inspection intervals

The spring-operated brake is to be checked during the prescribed inspections of the drive system
in which it is installed.
The service life of the brake before replacement does not only depend on the number of emergency
brakings. The wear of the brake friction linings depend on the operating conditions. The possible
overall friction work before a replacement is necessary will be less with many switchings.

6.2 Inspections
1. Torque / delay check

Warning!
Disconnect the drive from the load to prevent accidents. During the next inspection steps of the
spring-operated brake, the motor must not run!

2. Switch on the current for the brake.

3. Control the air gap “sLü” between brake disc and friction lining with feeler gauge. It must not
exceed the maximum permissible air gap “sLü max.” according to the table in chapter 3.2.
4. Turn off the power supply.

6.3 Maintenance
Under the application conditions as a holding brake, the brake does not require any maintenance.
Exchanging the brake is made in reverse order of assembly (chapter 4.2).

Warning!
Disconnect the drive from the load to prevent accidents. During further working steps on the
spring-operated brake the motor must not run!

1. Switch on the current for the brake or screw in transport screws (M6x65 with washer Ø23).
2. Undo mounting screws at the guide sleeves (Fig. 1).
3. Remove brake radially from the brake disc.
4. Switch off the power supply and disconnect the connecting cables.

7 Troubleshooting and fault elimination

Error Cause Remedy
Brake cannot be released, air gap is not zero Coil is interrupted z Measure the coil resistance with a multimeter:
– Exchange brake when resistance is too high.
Fault between turns or short circuit to ground z Measure the coil resistance with a multimeter:
– Compare the measured resistance with the rated resistance.
The rated data is given in chapter 3.2. Exchange brake
when resistance is too low.
z Test the coil for short circuit to ground using a multimeter.
– Exchange brake in case of short circuit to ground.
z Check the brake voltage (see defective rectifier, voltage too
low).
Defective or wrong wiring z Check and correct wiring.
z Check the cable using a multimeter:
– Replace a defective cable
Defective or wrong rectifier z Measure the DC voltage at the rectifier using a multimeter.
DC voltage is zero:
z Measure the AC voltage at the rectifier
AC voltage is zero:
– Switch on the voltage.
– Check the fusing.
– Check the wiring.
AC voltage is ok:
– Check the rectifier.
– Replace defective rectifier
DC voltage is too low:
– Check the rectifier.
– Defective diode, use appropriate rectifier
z Check the coil for fault between turns and short circuit to
ground
z If the rectifier defect occurs again, replace the brake even if
you cannot find any fault between turns or short circuit to
ground. The defect may occur later during heating up.
Wrong wiring of microswitch Check and correct the microswitch wiring
Wrong setting of microswitch Replace the brake and complain about the microswitch quality at
the manufacturer
Air gap too big Replace brake (chapter 6.3).
Brake disc cannot rotate freely Wrong setting of manual release Check the dimension s+sLü when brake is life. The dimensions
must be the same on both sides. If necessary, correct it.
Air gap “sLü“ too small z Control the air gap “sLü“ and, if necessary, replace the brake
(chapter 6.3).
z Thickness of the brake disc must be controlled and, if
necessary, brake disc must be replaced.
z Check the movability of the brake on the guide sleeves and, if
necessary, replace the guide sleeves.
Voltage is not zero during functional test, Wrong wiring of microswitch Check and correct wiring of microswitch.
chapter 5.1
