1.
Check the funcon of the brake while the drive is running: The armature plate must be
ghtened and the rotor must move free of residual torque.
2.
Measure the DC voltage on the brake.
-
Compare the measured DC voltage with the voltage specicaon on the nameplate. A
deviaon up to ±10 % is permissible.
-
When using bridge/half-wave recers: Aer switching over to one-way voltage, the
measured DC voltage may drop to 45% of the voltage indicated on the nameplate.
