Holding brake – BE.., BE.H brake or BE.. safety brake

Is the braking torque sufficient?

2.1

• Select a greater braking torque.
• Select a larger brake size (adhere to feasibility).
• Select larger motor, in case a larger brake could not be mounted prior.
• Select a larger gear ratio (results in a higher emergency-stop speed).
• Reduce the load in the application.

Is the permitted no-load starting frequency of the brake sufficient?

2.2

• Change brake type.
• Change the type of brake control.
• Reduce the no-load starting frequency of the application.

Are the emergency stop speed and operating speeds permitted?

2.6

• Select brake control with AC/DC shutdown.
• Select a smaller gear ratio.
• Reduce the motion speed of the load in the application.

Is the vertical/horizontal emergency-stop braking work sufficient?

2.8

• Reduce the emergency stop speed.
• Changing the braking torque.
• Select a larger brake size (adhere to feasibility).

Are the number of emergency stop operations and emergency stop frequency sufficient?

2.9

• Reduce the emergency-stop braking work.
• Reduce the emergency stop speed.

Final drive check:

Calculating the drive considering the selected components and their characteristic values (such as inertia).

For detailed configuration criteria and procedures, refer to the SEW‑EURODRIVE project planning guidelines.
