DC Injection Brake Unit, Solbrake 17

Solbrake 17 Electronic Motor Brake (DC Injection Brake) Unit.

The Solbrake – Solid State Motor Brake provides fast, smooth, frictionless braking of three-phase squirrel-cage motors by injecting controlled DC current to the motor windings, after Mains contactor opened. This induces a stationary magnetic field, which exerts a braking torque on the rotor. Stopping time can be similar to the time it takes to reach full speed on a Direct-On-Line starting. Replacement for the Allen West Easy Brake.

The Solbrake can be used to help ensure your machine meets the HSE PUWER regulations 

NOTE: The Solbrake 17 internal control relays are 240VAC max. rated
