ANTEC - Model NHC-900 -Rotor Brake System for Wind Turbines
The NHC-900 is a mechanical braking system with a hydraulic release mechanism designed for wind turbine rotors. Featuring a fail-safe design, this brake system utilizes a floating configuration with a self-aligning system to ensure the precise alignment of the brake pads and disc. It delivers up to 55 KN of clamping force and supports both sintered and organic pads, offering ease of replacement. Optional features include pad wear and brake-open detection systems, enhancing operational reliability. ANTEC also provides compatible hydraulic power units tailored for these braking systems to ensure optimal performance.
NHC-900 family are mechanical braking (Failsafe system) and hydraulic releasing brakes. Being a floating braking design, it is equipped with a self-aligning system to ensure the proper positioning of the pads and the brake disc. It provides up to 55 KN of clamping force and can be equipped, either with sintered or organic pads, with an easy lining replacement system.
Pad wear detection systems and brake-open detection systems can be supplied as options to the brake and ANTEC can also provide suitable hydraulic power units.
