Force Control Industries: MagnaShear hazardous duty brakes

Ideal for applications where the motor is reversed each cycle, new MagnaShear hazardous duty brakes—employing oil shear technology to provide longer service life with virtually no maintenance or adjustment—now meet Class I and Class II Div 2 specifications (Div 1 in process). With spring set torque ratings from 3 to 900 foot-pounds available, the motor brakes can be sized to the correct torque independent of the motor frame size or horsepower. They also include quick mount features for fast and easy installation on drive motors in NEMA frame sizes 56 to 405. Totally enclosed from outside contaminants, the units’ seal integrity withstands harsh and washdown environments, while their modular construction allows for ease of servicing and maintenance.
