WARNING:

Brake performance and features must be carefully matched

to the requirements of the application.

Consideration must be given to torque requirements,

especially where an overhauling condition exists, as well

as thermal capacity, ambient temperature, atmospheric

explosion hazards, type of enclosure and any other

al conditions.

Improper selection and installation of a brake and/or lack

of maintenance may cause brake failure that could result in

damage to property and/or injury to personnel.

If injury to personnel could be caused by brake failure,

additional means must be provided to insure safety of

personnel.

GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION

NOTE: These brakes are not intended for accurate positioning

applications. They are designed for applications that require

rapid stopping and holding power, such as on conveyors, door

openers, etc.

For applications with high inertia-type loads or rapid

cycling, the thermal capacity of the brake must be

considered.

Observe all local electrical and safety codes, as well as

the National Electrical Code (NEC) and the Occupational

Safety and Health Act (OSHA).

Brake motors and brake gearmotors must be securely and

adequately grounded. This can be accomplished by wiring

with a grounded metal-clad raceway system, by using a

separate ground wire connected to the bare metal of the

motor frame, or other suitable means. Refer to NEC Article

250 (Grounding) for additional information. All wiring

should be done by a qualified electrician.

Always disconnect power before working on or near a brake

motor, a brake gearmotor, or its connected load. If the

power disconnect point is out of sight, lock it in the open

position and tag it to prevent unexpected application of

power.

When working on the brake, be sure the load is completely

removed, secured or blocked to prevent injury or property

damage.

Provide guarding for all moving parts.

Be careful when touching the exterior of an operating

motor, gearmotor or brake. It may be hot enough to cause

injury or to be painful. This condition is normal for modern

motors, which operate at higher temperatures when running

at rated load and voltage.

Protect all electrical lead wires and power cables against

contact with sharp objects or moving parts.

Do not kink electrical lead wires and power cables, and

never allow them to touch oil, grease, hot surfaces or

chemicals.
