Airflex DBA Description

Section E
Model DBA brakes are spring applied, pressure released, disc

style brakes. They develop equal torque in either direction of
rotation. Their torque and thermal capacities allow them to be
used in the most demanding applications.
Brake construction and operation is shown in the figure.
Pressurizing the brake compresses the brake springs and
withdraws the clamping plates from the brake discs. Standard
brakes are furnished with either one or two discs, which are
free to move axially.
Model DBA uses a rubber diaphragm to form the releasing
pressure chamber and to serve as the releasing piston. Brake
friction material is attached to stationary components. Brake
discs are either solid or ventilated. The disc type is indicated
by an S for solid, or V, for ventilated, in the brake model designation. Solid discs are used in applications requiring a heat
sink and/or where engagement is infrequent. Ventilated discs
are recommended for cyclic applications.
Torque ratings listed are for brakes with a standard compliment of springs. The quantity of springs can be varied to
customize the torque of the brake to suit a particular application. Consult the factory for brake torque of units with nonstandard spring configurations.
Brake sizes are indicated by the number of brake discs and
the disc diameter in inches. For instance, size 229DBA has
two discs 29 inches in diameter.
Features
Large friction area.

Allows brakes to absorb and dissipate high energy loads associated with high cyclic and high inertia stops.
Where used:
Can making machines

Draglines
Power shovels
Conveyors
Power presses
Minimal adjustment required for lining wear.

Single disc units require no wear adjustment and dual disc
units require only one wear adjustment during the long life of
the friction material.

Airflex DBB Description

Section E
Model DBB brakes are spring applied, pressure released, disc

style brakes. They develop equal torque in either direction of
rotation. Their torque and thermal capacities allow them to be
used in the most demanding applications.
Brake construction and operation is shown in the figure.
Pressurizing the brake compresses the brake springs and
withdraws the clamping plates from the brake discs. Standard
brakes are furnished with either one or two discs, which are
free to move axially.
Model DBB uses a conventional piston design to release the
brake discs. The rotating component of the DBB style brake
is a very low inertia friction disc core with riveted on friction
discs. The low inertia of the rotating components coupled
with the high heat sink capacity of the stationary members allow these units to provide superior performance in high cyclic
applications. In applications requiring higher speed operation or where precise balance of the rotating components is
required, the DBBS style is offered, which utilizes a solid rotor
and stationary friction material. Similar to the DBAS design,
the DBBS should only be used for applications where brake
engagement is non-cyclic.
Torque ratings listed are for brakes with a standard compliment of springs. The quantity of springs can be varied to
customize the torque of the brake to suit a particular application. Consult the factory for brake torque of units with nonstandard spring configurations.
Brake sizes are indicated by the number of brake discs and
the disc diameter in inches. For instance, size 225DBB has
two discs 25 inches in diameter.
Where used:

Power Shovels
Conveyors
Shears
Power Presses
Features
Low inertia friction disc assembly.

Reduces the overall inertia that must be stopped.
Optional split friction discs.
Allows removal of friction discs without disturbing other components of drive system in mid-shaft brake arrangement.
Long wearing, self lubricating PolyPak* seals.
Eliminates premature twisting failure and requires no external
lubrication.

Airflex Type DC Element Description

Section E
Type DC elements can be used as either pressure actuated

clutches or brakes. They are available in single and multiple
disc designs.
Element construction and operation is illustrated in the figure.
Pressurizing the cylinder causes the piston to clamp the
friction disc assemblies between clamping plates. External
springs ensure positive disengagement.
Type DC elements are available in five basic disc sizes with
static torque ratings to 2,061,000 lb.in (233.000 N.m). Element sizes are indicated by the number of friction discs and
by the disc diameter in inches. For instance, size 225DC has
two friction discs 25 inches in diameter.
Features
Favorable torque to size ratio.

DC type elements are physically smaller than most other type
clutches and brakes with the same torque capacity.
Low inertia friction disc assembly.
Reduces the overall inertia that must be started or stopped.
Optional split friction discs.
Allows removal of friction discs without disturbing other components of drive system in mid-shaft element arrangement.
Where used:
Long wearing, self lubricating PolyPak* seals.

Eliminates premature twisting failure and requires no external
lubrication.

Airflex FHB Brake Elements

Section E
Overview
Eaton Airflex has introduced a revolutionary new design in
disc brake technology called the Floating Housing Brake
(FHB). The spring applied (power off), air-cooled disc brake
is well suited for applications in Surface Mining, Oilfield and
other heavy-duty industrial machinery designs.
The FHB is an air cooled spring applied brake with exceptional
friction life and rapid friction replacement capability. It is supplied with long wearing, organic friction material and a rugged
solid cast, rotating disc that provides lower inertia than typical
caliper brakes.
Features
Rated for over 430,000 lb-in of torque
Patented braking concept uses a floating housing instead of
a floating rotor
Multiple brake installation designs exist for industry leading
motors
Fixed hub and rotor design
Benefits
Ability to quickly change the friction pads reduces down
time on dragline from 3 hours to 1 hour
Reduced maintenance cost with elimination of spline tooth
or gear wear
Longer friction pad wear life due to a full 360 annular disc
Faster and safer installation with exclusive shaft lock
assembly for ease of mounting and removal
Virtually no wear during free wheeling, allows high product
life
196

Section E
Technical Introduction
The FHB brake is offered for applications with non-cyclic
brake engagement that require higher speed operation or precise balance of the rotating components is required. It uses
a solid rotor and stationary friction material to develop equal
torque in either direction of rotation. The disc is mounted on
the shaft which is to be stopped while the brake assembly
is attached to the machine frame. Pressurizing the brake
compresses the brake springs and withdraws the clamping
force from the brake disc so the shaft can rotate freely. As
air pressure is exhausted, the springs force the pressure plate
towards the mounting flange and the spring housing which in
turn forces the floating plate away from the mounting flange,
clamping the disc and the friction pad assembly.

Technical Section Y of the catalog contains useful information

pertaining to the selection, mounting, alignment and control
of clutches and brakes in general. Formulas, symbols and
units are also identified. It is recommended that Section Y be
reviewed before attempting to size a specific product for an
application.
DBA and DBB Brakes

The torque ratings are dependent upon spring force and
quantity, not a pressurizing medium. However, a pressurizing
medium is required to compress the springs to release the
brake. Minimum releasing pressures, as well as the maximum pressures which the piston and cylinder can withstand,
are given on the catalog pages.
Type DBA and DBB brakes are disc type and develop equal
torque in both directions of rotation. Several springs are used
in their design. If brake size is determined by thermal requirements rather than torque requirements, brake torque can be
reduced by spring removal.
For spring applied brakes, torque will decrease with lining
wear, due to the longer piston travel required for engagement. Single disc DBA and DBB brakes have no provision for
adjustment. Multiple disc brakes have a provision for adjustment after a given amount of lining wear. Therefore, DBA and
DBB brake torque with worn linings must be considered in
the selection process.
DC Elements
DC element dynamic torque ratings Mr, are based on an

effective pressure pr of 75 psi (5,2 bar). Maximum allowable
operating pressure is 120 psi (8,3 bar). Torque ratings must
be adjusted for operating pressure po and parasitic loss pp.
The elements have an inherent parasitic pressure pp, required
to cause friction disc engagement, which represents the
pressure to overcome internal sliding friction and to compress
disc releasing springs.

Cyclic and Non-Cyclic Thermal Capacity
Brake types DBAV and DBB were designed for cyclic stopping applications. They are capable of a maximum thermal
capacity Pc of 0.012 HP/in2.
Non-cyclic thermal capacity is determined by the element's
friction area, drum or disc mass, material heat capacity and
thermal conductivity. The properties of our standard elements
result in the limits indicated in the Non-Cyclic Energy Capacity
Graph. An explanation on the use of this graph follows.
The thermal energy calculated for the load is adjusted to
include the energy associated with accelerating or decelerating the components of the tentative clutch and/or brake
selection. The adjusted thermal energy Wt is divided by the
element's friction area A. Next, the average power loading
Pave is calculated from:
Pave =
Pt
A
The point (Wt/A, Pave) is plotted on the graph. If the point falls
below the appropriate product limit line, the selection will
handle the load. If it does not, an element having a greater
friction area is required.
