2.1 General Description
Hoisting Motor Frequency-controlled three-phase asynchronous motor.
Traction Sheave Double-wrap sheave with semi-circular grooves. Integral brake drum.
Brake Double-circuit spring-loaded brake, released by electromagnet.

An over-excitation voltage is applied to release the brake. After 0.7 seconds the over-
excitation voltage is switched over to holding voltage. For an emergency stop, a resistor in
the DC circuit allows the brake to be applied quickly. After a normal stop, the brake will be
applied more gently. The function of the two brake arms (open/closed) is monitored by the
two contacts KB and KB1.

5.2.2 Testing During Installation Travel
Procedure
No Step
1 Check the functioning of the safety contact KHA (for hand operation). If it is
actuated during the travel, the safety circuit must open and the elevator must stop.
2 During several travels, check if the two brake arms open quietly, symmetrically
and to the extent of the air gap shown in "Air Gap of the Brake Magnet" in "Brake
Setting". Correct the air gap if necessary.
3 Check that the brake contacts switch correctly. If not:
• With the brake closed (magnet not activated), adjust the two KB actuating
screws so that they touch the contact plunger and lock them with the nut (on
both brake arms).
Important: As soon as the brake opens (magnet activated), both contacts KB
and KB1 must switch. Make sure that they switch back again every time the
brake closes.
• Replace faulty brake contacts.
5.3 Tests Before Putting into Service and Safety Examinations
Checking of See detailed instruction in "Brake Effect Test".

of the rated load and interrupting the supply to the motor and the brake" (EN81-1,
Annex D).To be performed as detailed in "Brake Effect Test", Test C (overload).
Safety If national legislation requires periodic tests, instructions given for the acceptance
Examinations test and functional checks must be obeyed.
J 133136 / 01 - 23.06.2006 Page 12/33

6 Maintenance
Danger
To ensure safe and reliable operation of the elevator, the maintenance instructions must be
strictly observed.
Be especially aware:
• That the brake drum must be clean (free of oil, grease, dust, etc.).
• That the brake effect must be tested regularly.
• That the car will take up speed very quickly when the brake is released by hand.
• If the traction sheave protection had to be removed for maintenance work:
– To switch the main switch JH to "OFF", or
– To mind the nip between ropes and sheave with the machine in operation for
checks.
6.1 General
Safety Precautions • Make sure that the lift is mechanically and electrically safe before starting any
maintenance activities.
• During preventive maintenance work it is normally not necessary to open the
brake. If for some reason the brake must be opened manually, make sure that:
– The car is empty
– The recall control is switched on
– The counterweight is on the buffer
– The main switch JH is switched off.
Otherwise, the car can build up such speed that it will be impossible to stop it by
just closing the brake again.
• Keep away from moving parts during checks with the machine in operation.
Repairs Repairs on the brake system are not considered preventive maintenance work. Any
repairs must be done only by Schindler.
Maintenance Plan This instruction defines the minimum requirements per safety component.
Recommended maintenance activity intervals refer to the normal use of the lift within
normal conditions. Intervals will be adapted by the maintenance company to the local
requirements (for example, actual use, frequency of use, environmental aspects,
national legislation etc.).

6.2 Cleaning and Lubrication
Danger
The braking torque can be reduced by an oily brake drum.
This can lead to highly dangerous situations such as the car moving away from the
floor with doors open.
Damaged seal rings of the traction sheave bearing are the most probable cause of an oily
brake drum. To solve this problem, the seal rings must be replaced (contact the local
Schindler Organization for this replacement).
Brake Cleaning
No Step
1 Inspect the brake drum (2) for oil, grease, and oily deposits.
Important: If oil is spread over more than 20 % of the brake contact area (3), an
oil wiper must be installed as a temporary solution (contact the local Schindler
Organization). After the replacement of the bearing seals, the oil wiper can be
removed.
2 Clean the brake drum with particular care using solvent.

Lubrication No lubrication is required for all parts of the brake.
Interface If the brake drum shows signs of oil, the wrong rope grease may have been used.
Make sure that only those lubricants and oils are used that are listed in the instruction
manual of this elevator installation.
6.3 Checks and Adjustments on the Brake
Functional Checks Functional checks have to be carried out regularly to guarantee the correct and safe

Testing
Procedure No Step
1 Use the service tool or the SMLCD to do the tests.
2 Load and position the car as specified in the table "Testing Specifications" for the
test to be done.
3 Switch Brake Test on.
4 Initiate a car call as specified.
5 As soon as the car has traveled with nominal speed over two floors, press the stop
switch JHM to initiate an emergency stop.
During deceleration, monitor the ropes for any slipping. Evaluation of test
results and remedial actions differ if rope slipping occurs.
6 When the car has come to a halt, read the value of deceleration (in mm/s²) on the
display. If the value is lower or higher than the allowable AKN, take remedial
action as described in the table "Test Results and Remedial Actions".
If remedial actions do not produce satisfactory results, contact the local
Schindler organization.
J 133136 / 01 - 23.06.2006 Page 18/33

Note
Successful Test
If the brake effect tests specified in the table have been successful, this means that also the
following requirement of EN81-1:1998, Section 12.4.2.1, Paragraph 2, is satisfied: "All the
mechanical components of the brake which take part in the application of the braking action
on the drum or disk shall be installed in two sets. If one of the components is not working,
a sufficient braking effort to slow down the car, travelling downwards at rated speed and with
rated load shall continue to be exercised."

6.3.6 Brake Setting
Note
If the brake needs to be adjusted, and none of the parts are faulty or worn (minimum
brake lining thickness as shown in "Brake Linings"), proceed as detailed below.
Important: To release the brake, the magnet is fed with an 80 V supply and then, after
0.7 seconds, the control switches it over to a holding voltage. The magnet soon heats up
when fed with the 80 V supply and because of this it must not be supplied with this voltage
for more than 30 minutes.
Caution
Safety precautions:
• Take the empty car up to the uppermost stop when no travels are required.
• Turn off the main switch JH.
• Briefly release the brake with the brake release lever to make sure the counterweight is
on the buffer.
Air Gap of the

Brake Magnet No Step
1 To ensure quiet and fault-free operation of the brake, check the air gap between
magnet (4) and armature disk (3) on both brake arms. Check the dimensions EO
and EU for the air gap and correct if necessary by turning the nuts (5).

Braking Force
1 Set the dimension E for the brake springs (braking force) basically according to
TBME (from machine calculation) or, if TBME is not available, according to the
table below by turning the inner nuts (1). Lock the setting using the outer nuts (2).
2 Increasing the braking force
Important: Only if cleaning the brake drum (with solvent) and wearing in the brake
linings (by carrying out several emergency stops) do not result in a significant
increase in braking torque, is it permitted to increase the braking force by further
compressing the brake springs:
a) Loosen the outer nuts (2) and turn the inner nuts (1) inward about 120° (1 mm).
b) Lock the setting with the outer nuts (2).
3 Decreasing the braking force
a) Loosen the outer nuts (2) and turn the inner nuts (1) outwards about 60°
(0.5 mm).
b) Lock the setting with the outer nuts (2).
Note
Use the following table only in cases where the brake nameplate with correct dimension E
for the specific elevator installation is missing.
The table gives only guiding values and is valid for Balancing of Load (KG) = 50 % only.
The decisive factor for the spring setting is the deceleration in an emergency stop.
