The same considerations relating to the motor cable also applies. Therefore, pay special
attention to the use of shielding, even if the conductors are not already incorporated in the
motor cable.
WARNING: Mechanical hazard - AVERTISSEMENT: risque mécanique
Relying on the motor brake alone does not guarantee the safety of personnel or
equipment, and may result in death or serious injury to personnel or damage to
equipment.
Ø It is the responsibility of the machine manufacturer to specify an appropriate
braking mechanism for the application to ensure safe operation.
Ø In particular, vertical loads require an additional mechanical brake to operate in
a certifiably safe manner.
The brake cannot be autonomously monitored if there is an insufficient voltage level.
Consequently, it is necessary to measure the voltage on the input of the brake, and always
verify the functionality when releasing and braking. In particular, examine connections with long
cables or cables with reduced cross section, which are subject to significant voltage drops.
