Motor Braking Learning System – 85-MT5-A
The model 85-MT5-A Motor Braking Learning System adds to the 85-MT5 Motor Control Learning System to teach three common electric motor braking methods: electromagnetic braking, plugging, and DC injection. Students will learn industry-relevant skills related to these new topics including operation, installation, performance analysis, and design.
The model 85-MT5-A includes a DC braking station with power supply, transformer, and bridge rectifier mounted to a slide-in panel; inertial load module with flywheel; electromagnetic brake; plugging/anti-plugging switch; student learning materials for both theory and lab, and teacher’s guide. This system uses industrial quality components to help students become better prepared for what they will encounter on the job and to withstand frequent student use.
