The Safety Brake Type KSP is mainly designed to provide a good quality performance and functionality for very specific purposes. It is highly constructed to handle vertical moved mass in only a single direction. The holding is specifically done on a round shaft which can be a cylinder rod or a separate rod unit. The safety catcher may also be used to catch the falling load in the event of an emergency stop. The brake may be used in several application involving vertical or diagonal machine tool axes and vertical axes of certain loaders.
Load direction compressive (to mounting surface)
General information, particularly regarding purpose, function, choosing the right type, attachment and control is provided in "Technical Information TI-B10”.
Further important practical advice is given in “Operating Manual BA-B10”.
St M is the admissible load the mass to be secured exerts on the afety Brake. The holding (brakmg) force for dry or hydraulic-oil wet-ted rods is not less than 2 x M but will not exceed 3.5 x M.
O The necessary pressure to keep the clamping released is 3.5 bar. In case a spnng base ts installed. the required pressure for releasing without lifting is 4.5 bar. see "Technical Data Sheet TI-B20". The admissible operating pressure ts 8 bar.
© The Safety Brake has the advantage that it does not release under load. The Safety Brake can normally be released m this case only if release pressure is applied and the load is simultaneously lifted. i.e. if the load has already been transferred safely elsewhere. To ensure this safety advantage.
