Solenoid Brakes Applications Constructional features Adjustments Coil duty classification Mounting Brake selection The brake wheel is of relatively large size in relation to the torque developed by the brake. This permits use of a large brake shoe lining and lower shoe pressure. Low shoe pressure, equally distributed over a large lining area, results in even wear of the friction surfaces and even braking torque. The over-size wheel type construction also permits use of a smaller operating solenoid that requires less current for a given torque rating. Low shoe pressure reduces the stress on all pins and pivot points to extend mechanical life and reduce maintenance costs. There is no unbalance of forces to cause side thrust during braking, because shoe type brake does not depend upon a wrapping action of the lining around the wheel. Typical applications include conveyors, hoisting, equipment, machine tools, printing presses, small cranes, over head doors, vacuum moulding machines etc. Special constructional features such as those listed below account for exceptionally long mechanical life of the brakes. (i) Neoprene shock absorber—prevents link pin breakage and increases the life of the solenoid. (ii) Hardened steel lever and spring gland—the hardened steel construction of the lever and spring gland reduces wear at the pins and all other points of contact. (iii) Cast iron wheel— The physical properties of the iron minimise the tendency of the wheel to deposit metal particles in the lining which could result in serious scoring of the wheel. (iv) Spring pins—The tight gripping spring pins insure against the loss of pins due to shock. (v) Inexpensive lining replacement—Linings attached to shoes by removable flat head groove-pins. (vi) Fewer joints—The shoe is actually a part of the shoe lever and not separate from it. This makes for fewer mechanical joints and keeps wear points at a minimum. (vii) Solenoid—The solenoid coil can be removed without disturbing the brake adjustment. Solenoid loading is designed to reduce wear. Shunt brake coils are rated either for intermittent (1 hour) duty, or continuous duty. Intermittent duty indicates that the coil can be placed across the line for one hour without excessive heating. This is equivalent to 1/2 time duty or one minute on and one minute off. Coils rated for continuous duty can be connected across the line continuously without exceeding
