Electro-Hydraulic Thrustor Brakes

Speedage Engineers offers Electro-Hydraulic Thrustor Brake. An electro-hydraulic thrustor is an independent mechanism, which requires neither clutches nor external piping. The thrustor cylinder accommodates a centrifugal pump and a piston with two push rods extending outside through thrustor cover and transmitting effort to the brake. The robust design thrustor unit is compact and has long life and is easy to maintain. A main component used is of high quality cast iron and steel. An integral three-phase squirrel cage motor operates the thrustor. The device has the following advantages: constant pressure; gentle application and release of brake without jerks and shocks; and a larger number of switching-in operations per hour (up to 600). The rated stroke of each type of thrustor can be changed, retaining the same attractive force, by means of sleeves fitted on the rods (inside the body) (this arrangement is possible with models from ST 535 and above).
