Combination Air Applied Clutch and Spring Applied Brake

Function: Starting and Stopping / Holding The Output Shaft
Drive Arrangement: Motor to Gear Reducer (or Output Shaft Mounted Component)

Operation

  • Applying air pressure releases the spring applied friction brake and engages the friction clutch.
  • Torque of the clutch is linear in response to air pressure applied above the brake release pressure.
  • Brake torque is fixed by spring pressure.

Mounting

  • Clutch Brake mounts between a c-face motor and gear reducer.
  • or, Mounts to motor with a pulley or sprocket on the output shaft (see Detail Sheet for overhung load capacity).
  • Clutch Brakes are designed for horizontal mounting. Consult engineering if vertical mounting is required.

Applications

  • Start/Stop, Cycling, Indexing.
  • Maximum RPM varies by model and is listed on the PDF detail sheet (see table below). Consult engineering if the intended application exceeds the listed maximum RPM.

Design Features

  • Clutch and brake combined in one unit for simplified mounting and control.
  • Models listed have enclosed, aluminum housings.
