Product Description
SAF offers the OP-STOP DC Injection (DCI) brake module, a full-featured braking unit for smooth AC motor braking. While SAF starters help to “softly” start an AC motor and gradually increase the speed to reduce wear and enhance performance, OP-STOP SAF brakes provide safe and rapid AC motor braking to enhance production results as well as safety. OP-STOP DCI brakes provide adjustable braking using closed-loop current control. These brakes do not wear as do mechanical brakes, and high levels of braking torque can be delivered through controlled DC injection in two motor phases.
As high-torque DC brake modules, these solutions are ideal for motors as large as 800 horsepower across the 200-to 600-volt range. Current-regulating features deliver smooth operation to any AC induction-type motor requiring high-torque braking. These solutions can also handle high-inertia loads and generally stop them in three seconds and one minute to promote less wear.
SAF designed the Opal Op-Stop to be compatible with across-the-line or solid-state soft starters and offer multiple configuration choices. Install one in your facility for greater efficiency, higher throughput and reduced maintenance needs.
