Brake Control Unit BCMS-X
The BCMS-X is a micro-controller-based monitoring and switching device for spring applied brakes of the SFB, KFB, and TS series. Through measurement and analysis of current and voltage of the outgoing 2-wire, the switching status and the wear status of up to 12 electromagnetic spring-applied brakes can be evaluated simultaneously. The brakes are switched by using two internal electronic semiconductor switches. Basically, the brakes are switched by fast excitation, so the DC coil of the connected brakes will be energized at double nominal DC voltage. After that, the BCMS-4 switches to holding current operation, thereby saving electrical energy.
- Modular concept with single brake modules can handle 1 up to 12 brakes
- Supply voltages up to 480 V AC 50/60 Hz
- DIN rail mounting
- EMC compatibility
- Quick releasing and closing of the brakes
- Due to the 12-channel version up to 12 spring applied brakes can be operated simultaneously
- Overcurrent trip to protect the brakes
