ELECTRO HYDRAULIC THRUSTOR BRAKES
Introduction
Lawa Thruster brake is a device to retard the speed of moving machinery and to stop it accurately to the desired position. The braking force is applied to the brake shoes by a pre stressed compression spring. The shoes press on the rotating brake drum retarding its speed, and finally stopping it. The releasing of the brake and compressing of the spring is done by thruster. Other release devices like pneumatic cylinder or manual release arrangements can be offered on request.
Construction And Operation
Thruster brake has a pair of cast iron shoes which are lined up with friction pads. The shoes are hinged on main arm and side arm of the brake. Each of them have a hinge pin fitted in the base. They are connected to each other on top by a tie rod, which is hinged in the main arm and locked to the swivel block in the side arm, by a lock nut.
A crank lever is hinged on the main arm, and the other end is fixed to the top clevis of the thruster by a hinge pin. A brake spring, is fixed on the main arm and is pre-loaded by a locknut on the lever, pre-tension in this spring decides the breaking torque. The thruster is fitted on the base by a hinge pin. When the thruster is not energized, the brake shoes are pressed on the brake drum fitted on the drive motor shaft and hold it under the effect of braking force provided by the spring. In such condition, the brake is applied, and the drum cannot rotate. When the thruster motor is energized, the thrust provided by the thruster lifts up the crank lever which move the arms and the shoes away from the brake drum, there by releasing the braking force. The spring is compressed and braking energy is stored for the next cycle.
FOUNDATION
To install the brake, the foundation must be made ready with tapped holes of proper size as per the dimensions mentioned in the dimension table. Care must be taken to ensure the center line of the brake coincides with the centerline of the brake drum and also the level of mounting pads “h” is matching with the center height of the brake drum.
INSTALLING BRAKE IN POSITION
To insert the brake in position the brake shoes are to be taken apart to clear the drum diameter. To do this, slacken the setting bolts and the tie-rod nuts in the side arm pull it slightly. This will increase the distance between the brake shoes and the brake can now be inserted on the foundation bolts and the shoes can be positioned on the brake drum. Re-tighten the setting bolt and the tie-rod nuts. Tighten the mounting bolts.
INSTALLING THRUSTER ON BRAKE
The thruster to be filled with sufficient quantity of oil as mentioned in the Thruster Table. To mount the thruster on the brake, remove one side split pins on the thruster hinge pins of the brake and the lever. Remove both pins and re-insert them after positioning the thruster on the pin holes in the base and lever of the brake, replace both split pins, check that the thruster movement is unobstructed when the crank lever is pulled manually and the thrust rod of the thruster and connect 3-phacse, 415 Volts power supply cables to the three terminals on the terminal plate inside the terminal box. Terminate the earthing lead on the earth terminal provided on the thruster or brake. Replace the terminal box cover on the terminal box. The thruster is ready for operation.
ALIGNING AND SETTING OF BRAKE
Next, align the brake shoes with the diameter and surface of the brake drum and adjust the nuts on the tie- rod such that both shoes grip the brake drum equally. Energize the power cables. This will cause the thrust rod of the thruster to move up and the brake is released as the shoes released the break drum. Adjust the gap between the drum and shoes to 0.3 to 0.5, equally by adjusting the setting bolts on both arms. For equal and uniform liner wear it is necessary to ensure that the shoes and the arms move equally. This is done automatically by the ball on one arm and a matching vee on the other arm.
ELECTRO HYDRAULIC THRUSTORS (ST)
ELECTRICAL SUPPLY
Unless otherwise specified, all thrusters are suitable for operation for 415 Volts,-phase, 50 Hz power supply. Thrusters for other voltages up to 600 VAC, 3-phase can be supplied against specific enquiries.
Connections
Lawatherm Thrusters operated equally well in both directions of rotation. Therefore, the three phase supply lines can be connected the Thrusters in any R-Y-B phase sequence. Provide adequate safety backups.
Oil Requirements
Thrusters are supplied without oil to avoid spillage during transportation. They must be filled with sufficient quantity of oil before installation. For all models of thrusters, it is recommended to use Transformer Oil as specified in BS : 148. Oil capacity requirements are listed in the table below.
Installation Of Thrusters
Lawatherm Thrusters are suitable for vertical mounting only. After filling the thruster with required quantity of oil. Install it by using the clevis and hinge pins provided. Insert the locking spilt pins. Ensure that no excessive transverse forces are acting on the thrust rod. Wipe out the dust, paint or oil deposits from the operating section of the thrust rod pins by dry and clean cloth.
MAINTENANCE
Lawatherm Thrusters is designed for long trouble free service. The motor windings are designed to meet contingencies. The bearings are adequately sized. Routine maintenance schedule includes checking the oil level and topping them if necessary. If oil contamination is detected, drain it out completely and refill with fresh oil. Check and correct the oil leakage if detected.
WIRE GRID & PUNCH GRID
Introduction
Lawatherm Resistance boxes are used to add resistance in an electric motor circuit for modifying the performance characteristic of Slip Ring Electric Motors of EOT Cranes, Rubber Mills, Steel Rolling Mills, Cement Plants, Power Plants, Conveyors, Coke Oven, Blowers, etc. for speed control and developing starting torque with low starting currents. They are also used as Dynamic Breaking Resistors for V.V.V.F.A.C. Drives, electric loading of AC Altimeters, DC Generators, and Dynamometers.
Resistors are designed to meet the requirements of both A.C. & D.C. Applications.
Type Of Resistors
The basic types of resistors are:
- Stainless steel Wire Grid Resistors
- Stainless Steel Punched Grid Resistors
- Fecral Punched Grid Resisters
Current Ratings
Resistors are manufactured for current ratings from 10 to 800 Amps. Continuous duty resistors of higher ratings are made by using two-or more parallel paths. Resistors with shirt time rating up to 3000 Amps (or even higher), for neutral earthing are possible for system voltage up to and above 11KV.
Stainless Steel Wire Grid Resistors
These resistors consist of stainless steel wires or strips in the form of grids. The current rating generally ranges from 7 Amps to 100 Amps. For continuous duty applications with single or multiple paths.
Stainless Steel Grid Resistors
Punched steel grid resistors consist of grid punched from corrosion-resisting nickel-chromium alloy sheet steels. The punched steel grids are completely immune to shock & vibration. They function reliably under the worst operating conditions and are particularly suited for steel mill duty. These resistors are available in a wide range of current ratings from 8 Amps to 800 Amps for continuous duty with single or multiple parallel paths.
