Brake Motors by Hindustan Electric Motors combine an AC induction motor with a robust electromagnetic (AC/DC) brake, offering precise stopping control and fail-safe operation. Known for their rugged design and minimal maintenance, these motors are ideal for industrial uses where instantaneous stopping is critical.

The integrated rectifier enables the brake coil to operate without a separate DC power supply. This efficient design allows for safe and reliable deceleration in case of power failure or intentional shut-off .

Key Specifications:

• Frame Sizes: 63 to 250 MX (some catalogs list up to 355L)
• Power Ratings: 0.18 to 55.0 kW (others show 0.12 to 150 kW)
• Poles: 2, 4, 6 & 8
• Mountings: B3, B5, B14 & combinations
• Protection Class: IP54 (some references list IP55 TEFC)
• Brake Torque: Up to 800 Nm
• Brake Coil Voltage: 190 V DC (other voltages optional)
• Duty Cycle: S1–S8 (continuous to intermittent duty)

Applications & Advantages:

• Fail-safe braking: Brake engages automatically on power loss.
• Instant stopping: Essential in printing, textile, rolling mills, cranes, hoists, material handling, and machine tools.
• No external DC supply needed: Built-in rectifier simplifies installation.
• Compact, rugged design: Ideal for harsh industrial environments.
