The New Lenze Spring-Operated Brakes
The compact modular BFK458 system

The Lenze quality standards for development, material,
selection, production and assembly mean that the new
spring-operated brakes fulfil the highest requirements.
These electromagnetically released, spring-operated
brakes can be used in all cases where movable masses
have to be braked in the shortest possible time or have to
be hold in a defined position.
The braking force is provided by compression springs.
This means that the frictional brake torque is produced
in the non-current state, i.e. also in the event of a supply
failure. The brakes are released electromagnetically.
The new BFK458 range replaces the spring-operated
brake types 14.448 / 14.449 and 14.450. The main components of the new modular system consists of the modules
E (adjustable brake torque) and N (brake torque not

Spring-operated brakes BFK458 are brakes with two

friction surfaces. By means of several pressure springs
the brake friction is generated when no current is applied.
The brakes are electromagnetically released. While braking,
the rotor (3) which is axially movable on the hub (4), is
pressed against the counter friction face (6) by means of
the springs (2) via the armature plate (1). In case of braking,
an air gap sl occurs between the armature plate and the

stator (7). To release the brake, the coil of the stator (7) is
excited by means of DC current. The resulting magnetic
flux causes the armature plate to be pulled towards the
stator. Thus, the rotor is released. The brake torque can
be reduced via the adjuster nut (8) for the basic module E.

Basic module E, brake torque reduction

For the basic module E, the brake torque can be reduced
by turning the detended adjuster nut in the stator.
The adjuster nut can be unscrewed until the maximum
dimension h1max (see table on page 11).
Take into consideration that engagement times and disengagement times change depending on the brake torque.
The reduction of the torque is independent of the choosen
brake torque.

Noise-reduced designs
The required noise reduction for stage machinery and
various other application examples can be optionally
achieved by 2 measures:
1. Impact noise reduction of the armature plate
The operating noise can be minimised by using O-rings,
which are installed between the magnet housing and
armature plate, acting as a limit stop damper.
2. Noise-reduced aluminium rotor
Rattling noises, which can occur e.g. at load changes in
the rotor-hub connection, are reduced by using a rotor
with plastic sleeve.

Operating Times
The operating times are valid for DC switching at nominal
air gap sl and coil at nominal temperature. They are
average values which may vary depending on the method
of rectification and the air gap sl.
The engaging time t1 for AC switching is approx. six times

higher than for DC switching.

Installation
Life
If no suitable opposing surface is available, a mounting

flange or a friction plate (6) can be used.
Fit the hub (4) onto the shaft (5) and secure axially.
Now fit rotor (3) onto hub (4).
Insert the fixing screws (10) through the holes provided in
the stator and fit those to the counter friction surface.
Remove transport clips.
Check air gap sl.
The friction surfaces must be kept from oil and grease.
Connect electrically.
The brake has to be adjusted when reaching slmax.

The necessary friction work depends on a number of
factors, namely the inertia to be braked, the braking
speed, the operating frequency and thus the temperature
at the friction faces. Therefore, no general statement can
be made about the friction work available until adjustment,
which is valid for all operating conditions.
For more detailed information, please indicate the specific
operating conditions.
(Please contact the manufacturer).

Friction plate
If plain machined counterface is available but cannot be

can also be
combined with a seal. The friction plate is made of noncorroding material. It can be supplied up to size 16.

Caution:
Even with a reduced rated torque, a readjustment of the

Mounting flange (double brake)

The mounting flange can be used to adapt a second basic
module to the basic module N; the resulting double brake
is suitable for stage machinery or other applications with
increased safety requirements.
Seal
The seal prevents to a large extent exit or penetration of
dust, humidity, dirt, etc. into the braking area. The seal is
pulled over the brake and inserted into the grooves
provided. If no suitable groove is available at the output
side, we recommend to use a mounting flange or a friction
plate.

Microswitch
Mounting of the microswitch to basic module E
The microswitch is used when a monitoring of the air gap is

required and is available for the sizes 12 - 25. If the armature
plate (1) is in contact with the stator (7), the motor contactor
is controlled via the microswitch. The motor can only start,
if the brake is released. If the maximum air gap slmax is
reached, the stator no longer attracts the armature plate.
The motor contactor is not activated, the motor does not
start. The air gap sl of the basic module E and the basic
module N can be readjusted. The microswitch can also be
adjusted such that a signal is output before the wear reserve
is reached (wear monitoring).

Microswitch and terminal box
Microswitch for hand release monitoring
Door drives, for instance, are provided with brakes with
hand release and microswitch for hand release
monitoring. In this case, the hand release must make it
possible to drive the door also in manual operation to the
desired position, e.g. with a crank. The manual operation
must be detected via a microswitch. Its operating signal
must be combined with the motor control, so that starting
of the motor and as a result possible injuries of the
operator can be prevented. The microswitch for hand
release monitoring is a built-on option.
The fixing bracket is screwed on the magnet housing or
magnet part via the bores on the backside. The fixing
bracket makes it possible to mount a microswitch. Both
directions of release, towards and away from the motor
can be realised through different fixing brackets and
adjustments of the microswitch.
Terminal box
The connecting cables can easily be integrated into higherlevel control systems via the terminal box (brake sizes
12 - 25) to achieve different wirings (three inputs/outputs).
2/4-pole terminal strips, half wave and bridge rectifiers and
a microswitch can be integrated into the terminal box.
The terminal box is mounted to the spring-operated brake

using fixing brackets and screws as shown in the drawing.
With the assembly kit you can select the mounting angle
according to your requirements.

Basic Information
The necessary size of a brake is largely determined by the
required brake torque Mreq.
The inertias to be braked, the relative speeds, the braking
times and the operating frequency also have to be
considered in the calculations. Marginal conditions, e.g.
ambient temperature, humidity, dust and mounting position
should be known.
In the event of extreme/critical conditions, please contact
the manufacturer.
Selection in accordance with the VDI rule 2241.
In any case, the friction faces must be kept from oil

Approximate determination of the required brake

torque and the brake size
If only the power to be transmitted is known, the required
brake torque can be determined as follows:
Mreq = 9550
Thermal load
For high operating frequencies and friction work per
operation, the thermal load of the brake must be considered. The friction work per operation can be calculated as
follows:
Q=
Safety factor
To ensure the necessary transmission safety even under
extreme operating conditions, the required torque is
multiplied by the safety factor K which depends on the
operating conditions.

Load types
In practical applications, it is mainly distinguished between
the following loads:
P
K MK
n0
JL n02
MK
182.5
MK ML
- ML = to be used, e.g. when lowering a load

+ ML = for normal braking
The permissible friction work per operation at a given
operating frequency can be taken from the diagrams on
page 15.
With given friction work per operation, the permissible
operating frequency can be taken from the diagrams
mentioned above.
Mreq = Ma K MK

Dynamic plus static load

Most applications belong to this category as in most
cases there is not only a static torque but also a dynamic
load.

Selection
Calculation Example
The following technical data are known:
P = 3 kW
n0 = 1450 min -1
JL = 0.52 kgm2 total
t3 = 2 s
ML = 15 Nm
Sh = 6 operations/ h
Ordering example
A brake type BFK458-14E or design N (with or without
adjuster nut) with additional hand release and seal.
Supply voltage 205 V =, shaft diameter 25 mm.
BFK458 -14 E, 205 V =, d = 25 mm
Approximate determination of the required brake torque

and the brake size:
Mreq = 9550

Mreq = 9550

Calculation of the required brake torque

Mreq =
ML K
t12 = 0.05 s (see page 15)
Mreq = 0.52 1450

15 2 = 50 Nm
9.55 2 0.05

Therefore, type BFK458-14 is chosen

MK = 60 Nm > Mreq = 50 Nm

182.5
(60 + 15)
Calculated friction work Q = 4792 J / operation.

The diagram on page 15 shows for size 14 at Sh = 6 h-1 a
permissible energy of 30000 J.
Q = 4792 J < Qzul. = 30000 J
The brake has therefore been correctly selected.
