A double acting piston drives the single clutch/brake disk against a driving plate for clutching, or against the stationary braking surface for stopping. All friction surfaces are cooled by air drawn through the unit by an internal fan.
Size: Approximately 7 inches in height, width and length, plus shaft extensions. The input and output shafts are each 1 inch in diameter.
Clutch and Brake Torque: 1,000 lb. in. at 100 psi. Torque is proportional to air pressure.
The following table shows maximum air pressure for a 5 year (10,000 hour) average thrust bearing life. We recommend that you reduce the theoretical torques and horsepowers in the table by a reasonable factor of safety, to allow for manufacturing variations in the coefficient of friction of our clutch and brake materials
