Figure4-2 Terminology (time) for holding operation
Holding torque M
4
The holding torque M
4
is the highest permissible torque for the closed brake in steady-state
operation without slip (holding function when motor is at standstill). The data applies for the
state at operating temperature (120°C).
Dynamic braking torque M
1m
The dynamic braking torque M
1m
is the smallest mean dynamic braking torque that can occur
for an EMERGENCY STOP.
Opening time and closing time
The delay times that occur when switching the brake.
Maximum permissible single operating energy
The maximum permissible single operating energy of an individual EMERGENCY STOP
operation.
After an EMERGENCY STOP with the maximum single operating energy, allow a cooling time
of at least 3 minutes before you operate the motor again.
Total operating energy (service life)
The total switching energy is the sum of the single operating energy (operating energy for
each EMERGENCY STOP procedure). If the total operating energy is exceeded, brakes can no
longer be guaranteed to function correctly.
• Refurbish the motor.
