With patented two-coil system
The BE.. brake is a DC-operated electromagnetic spring-loaded brake. It is equipped with the patented two-coil system from SEW‑EURODRIVE. It works particularly rapid and wear-free in supply system startup in combination with brake controls from SEW‑EURODRIVE with acceleration function.
When using the two-coil system, BE.. brakes are suitable for high switching frequencies as they are required for fast cycle applications for example.
While operation of the brake is also possible without acceleration function or with a direct DC voltage supply without SEW‑EURODRIVE brake control for sizes up to BE2, all brakes of sizes BE5 and higher are optimized for using the two-coil system.
This allows for particularly energy-efficient operation as the power loss can be reduced in stop state. For brakes without two-coil system, the magnetic circuit has to be dimensioned larger for implementing the same braking torque and wear distance.
