Merobel Electromagnetic Particle Clutches

Merobel Electromagnetic Particle Brakes

Overview:

These brakes provide torque proportional to the electric current, independent of the slipping speed, with low residual torque. They are easy to integrate into any type of system, achieving fast response time, linear, smooth, clean/dust free, silent operation with low wear and long life-reduced maintenance.

The thermal dissipation of these devices can by increased by the installation of cooling fins (radiator), blower kit or water-cooled devices.

Styles:

FAS Series: External Shaft Brakes, torques up to 4 lb.ft.
FRAS Series: External Shaft Brakes with Cooling Fins, torques up to 4 lb.ft.

FAT: Through Shaft Brakes, torques up to 752 lb.ft.
FRAT: Through Shaft Brakes with Cooling Fins, torques up to 752 lb.ft.
FRATO: Through Shaft Brakes with Water Cooling, torques up to 752 lb.ft.
