Integrated safety brake

A safety brake is integrated into the gearbox of this ELEKTROMATEN. The safety brake protects against the door dropping due to breakage or wear of the gear teeth. The safety brake works regardless of the mounting position, speed and rotating direction. It is maintenance-free. The specification of the locking torque and the approval number of the safety brake are available in the technical data of these instructions.

Warning – Danger of the door dropping!
If you need to apply more than the permissible force of 390N (according to DIN EN 12604/DIN EN 12453) to move the door by emergency manual operation, this indicates a stalling on the drive unit or door. Releasing the stalling may cause the door to drop.

  • Adopt a secure position.
  • For drive units with brake, the emergency manual operation must be carried out against the closed brake.
