FCB 21 Brake test

The FCB 21 tests the function and performance of up to 2 brakes. The function separately applies an adjustable torque (static test) to the applied brakes.

The brake test can be adapted to the various requirements. The test result "passed" (test result OK) or "failed" (test result not OK) is available as feedback for each brake. Other measured values are also available.

An application-specific load torque must be taken into account when specifying the torque. The user can specify values. Alternatively, FCB 21 can determine the current load situation itself, which simplifies startup and offers more flexibility.

FCB 21 works with drive train 1. An encoder feedback (motor encoder or external encoder) that matches the used VFC^PLUS or CFC control mode is required.

When testing a brake, the brake control is integrated via DB0/DB00.

When testing two brakes, additional wiring is required in the brake control.
