FRENOMAT & FRENOSTAT -
The quick and reliable way to bring things to a
standstill, with no mechanical wear.
Principle of Operation :
A rugged power converter, working in conjunction with floating,
digital control electronics, generates a powerful braking
torque.
The braking effect is initiated by an adjustable direct current
that flows through the motor winding. A stationary magnetic
field, which acts as a static field, retards the rotational
movement of the rotor. The braking torque that results from this
follows the curve depicted against the speed.

Frenostat 2000
Electronic Brake
Model
Frenomat and Frenostat electronic brake units :
Reliably
and quickly brake asynchronous motors to a standstill
without requiring any maintenance or suffering any wear
They are
the perfect solution for shortening long coasting times
(saving time and costs)
These
are components that can be retrofitted in control cabinets
without any problem
Frenomat
and Frenostat units are maintenance and wear-free
Due to
systematic action taken to meet the demands of the market,
Frenomat and Frenostat electronic brake units have a wider power
spectrum than units comparable in design.
In particular, the following features designed to increase
service reliability are to be highlighted:
Visual
indication of the operating state
Proven
snubber circuit to protect against voltage peaks
Generous
rating of the heat sinks
High
degree of service reliability – even under rough service and
ambient conditions – thanks to protective lacquering
Captive
connecting screws
Automatic standstill monitoring

MAIN BROCHURE
As one of
the leading market solutions for electronic brakes, Frenomat &
Frenostat are used in a broad range of applications, such as
waste treatment machinery, concrete factories, food processing
industry, chemical & medical industries, sugar refineries, just
to name a few …
This solution is intended for vibrating, crushing, milling,
sorting, conveying and cutting equipment of various types and of
high inertia, especially as it applies to the operational safety
and control of these machines.
The Advantages of using the Frenomat – Frenostat Technology are
many : First and foremost, it improves safety. It greatly
extends the life of the transmissions and therefore cuts down on
the regular servicing requirements of your systems. It also
slows down wearing of parts, when used as a supplement to a
mechanical brake. Excellent time savings when dealing with
machines that have strong inertia, as it helps in significantly
reducing the stoppage time and cycle time. Particularly where a
machine has to come to a complete stop each time.
Extensive market testing identified the Frenomat - Frenostat
products as the most complete electronic brake system
available. This solution is easily incorporated without any
modification needed in the mechanical aspect of the machine. It
has been praised for its simplicity of control, linking and
regulating. You get all these features at a very affordable and
competitive price.
Last but not least, in the case of modification or
reconditioning of machines, this solution will give you the
advantage of not having to make any major changes to the main
drive/motor system. This will allow you to greatly reduce the
modification costs and make the operation of the machines safer
and more efficient.
The Frenomat 2 electronic
brake unit quickly and reliably brakes three-phase AC motors
with a power output of up to 3 kW. Frenomat 2 brake units are
compact and suitable for snap-fitting on DIN rails. They are
only 55 mm wide. The control and power circuits are housed in a
rigid and unbreakable plastic enclosure. The braking current
and braking time are both infinitely variable and can be
adjusted manually. Frenomat 2 is also equipped with a
standstill monitoring unit on terminal n1 to allow it to be used
with drives whose rotating mass is frequently changed.
Frenostat 2000 - This type of brake unit is used to
quickly and reliably brake three-phase AC motors within a power
output range from 3 to 100 kW to a standstill.
Frenostat 2000 is available in 4 different sizes.
(
Please refer to the brake models listed and pictured on the
right side of this page )
The Frenostat 2000 braking units use an integral braking current
measurement function to control the amperage and the braking
force to the specified values set. This simplifies
commissioning and dispenses with the need for time-consuming
measurement procedures. An ammeter is not required to set the
current. The current level is indicated by means of a bar
display.
Braking Current Display
Frenostat 2000 brake units are equipped with an LED bar
display. This display indicates the instantaneous braking current in
10% steps. (Reference to Nr. 8

Frenostat 2000 electronic brake units can be controlled both by
means of contactor equipment or a PLC (24-V logic).
Application Notes :
A Frenostat 2000
electronic brake unit brings the 30-kW drive ( Vibrating Screen
) to a standstill within just a few seconds. This prevents
dangerous sympathetic (resonant) oscillations.
Use of the Frenostat 2000 made it possible to accomplish this,
without elaborate and costly concrete foundations.
