ANTEC - Model NHC-1400 -Rotor Brakes for Wind Turbines
The NHC-1400 series provides a robust solution for rotor braking in wind turbines, utilizing a mechanical failsafe system coupled with hydraulic release. Its floating design features a self-aligning mechanism that ensures optimal alignment of the brake pads with the disc. The system is capable of delivering a clamping force of up to 150 KN, adaptable to both sintered and organic brake pads, which can be replaced with ease due to the design's user-friendly features. Advanced options include systems for pad wear and brake-open detection, further enhancing operational reliability. ANTEC also offers compatible hydraulic power units. These features collectively ensure that the NHC-1400 rotor brakes deliver reliable, efficient braking performance essential for modern wind energy applications.
NHC-1400 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 150 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.
