ENGINE ROOM CRANE BRAKE SAFETIES

  • Measure distance between magnet & armature, clearance should be 0.5 mm around the armature (Refer manual for exact value).
  • If the gap is more or less than the exact value adjust the braking power not to reach the required gap.
  • If any overhauling is carried out supply the current to the magnetic coil only to confirm that running shaft is operating without any resistance.
  • The electromagnetic brake is operated by the brake lining. Check for the moisture on the surface of the lining to avoid slippage.
  • Check the signs of the overheating and mechanical damage.
  • Check the tension of the spring which carries the brake during overheating of brake assembly.
