Product Details:
The SFB Series Electromagnetic Spring-Applied Brakes are engineered for challenging environments, particularly where high safety and reliability are essential. These brakes have been extensively used for winch motors in shipbuilding, and as safety or service brakes in wharf crane installations. They are equally suited for dynamic and static applications in heavy industries such as steel mills, offshore platforms, and machine construction.
Key Features:
- Spring-Applied, Fail-Safe Braking: The brakes engage when the power is off, ensuring safety even during a power failure.
- IP67 Protection: Fully submersible design, perfect for marine and offshore applications.
- High Work Capacity: Capable of decelerating from high rotational speeds with large energy absorption.
- Minimal Maintenance: Designed for long life with a one-time readjustment over the entire wear area and easy inspection during operation.
- Emergency Manual Release: Standard on all models for added safety.
- High Wear Resistance: Advanced wear reserve that eliminates the need for frequent maintenance.
- Strong Magnetic Circuit: Capable of bridging large air gaps, ensuring reliable performance under harsh conditions.
Certifications:
Approved by major classification societies such as Germanischer Lloyd, Lloyd's Register of Shipping, Det Norske Veritas, Bureau Veritas, American Bureau of Shipping, and more, ensuring compliance with the highest standards.
Applications:
- Winch motors in shipbuilding
- Safety and service brakes for wharf cranes
