Kollmorgen BH-826-D-41

Product Name:​ Industrial Brake or Specialized Motion Component (B-Series/H-Series related)
Product Introduction:
The BH-826-D-41​ likely refers to a Fail-Safe Holding Brake​ compatible with Kollmorgen B-series or H-series motors, or a specific legacy component. “BH” typically denotes Brake, Holding. It is a spring-applied, electrically released device.

Detailed content

Technical Specifications (Typical for BH series brakes):
  • Voltage:​ 24VDC (standard)
  • Torque:​ Varies by size (826 might indicate size/torque code, approx. medium frame)
  • Engagement:​ Spring-set (fails safe on power loss)
  • Manual Release:​ Often available via hex key
  • Ambient Temp:​ -10°C to 60°C (typical)
Functional Features:
  • Zero backlash​ engagement.
  • Low wear friction lining.
  • Designed for vertical load holding during power off.
Application Scenarios:
  • Vertical axis of CNC machines
  • Z-axis of robots
  • Medical lifts
  • Any axis requiring position retention during emergency stop
Structure:
  • Electromagnetic coil, spring pack, armature plate, friction disc.
  • Mounts directly to motor rear or integrated into motor (AKM/BH options).
Working Principle:
When 24V is applied, the electromagnetic force overcomes spring pressure, retracting the armature and releasing the brake. On power loss, springs engage friction surfaces mechanically.
Installation & Precautions:
  • Must be wired to a safe voltage source​ (often via drive brake output).
  • Do not use for continuous stopping (wear will accelerate).
  • Ensure manual release is accessible if provided.
