The Oriental Motor SB50W is a versatile brake pack that combines several essential functions into one integrated unit. Let’s explore its features:
- Instantaneous Stop: The SB50W provides rapid stopping capability, ensuring precise control over motor movement. When you need to halt your equipment promptly, this feature comes in handy.
- Bi-Directional Operation: It supports both forward and reverse motor movement, allowing flexibility in various applications.
- Electromagnetic Brake Control: The SB50W integrates an electromagnetic brake control function. This feature ensures that the motor stops promptly when needed, enhancing safety and preventing unintended movement.
- Thermal Protector Open Detection: The brake pack can sense when the motor’s thermal protector (overheat protection device) is activated. If the thermal protector opens due to excessive heat, the SB50W outputs an alarm signal and automatically cuts off power to the motor. Even after the temperature drops and the thermal protector closes, the motor won’t restart by itself. You can reset the alarm using external signals.
- Long Life and Maintenance-Free: Unlike mechanically operated electromagnetic brakes, the electronic brake in the SB50W has a longer lifespan. It operates based on current flow, making it ideal for indexing applications. Plus, since it doesn’t use a power relay, no maintenance is required.
- Wide Voltage Range: The SB50W covers a single-phase voltage range of 100 to 230 VAC ±10%, accommodating major voltages used worldwide.
- Safety Compliance: The SB50W is recognized by UL, CSA, and bears the CE Marking, adhering to safety standards. It’s suitable for various motor types, including induction motors, reversible motors, electromagnetic brake motors, and watertight, dust-resistant motors with an output power of 1 W to 90 W (1/750 HP to 1/8 HP).
