The Toledo Brake Monitor is an easy-to-operate, encoder-based monitor that provides accuracy and meets and/or exceeds OSHA, ANSI and CSA requirements.
How it Works:
A Brake Monitor measures press brake stopping time in milliseconds and will automatically prevent the activation of a successive stroke, if the stopping time is beyond the brake limit set point. The Toledo Brake Monitor monitors the stopping time of the press on every stop. It has two settings to display problems with the brake stopping time. The alarm setting, when exceeded, will open a relay and not allow the press to cycle. It will display "Brake Fault" on the LCD display and the alarm light will turn on. The warning setting, when exceeded, will display "Brake Warning" and the warning light will turn on. The warning fault will not open the stop relay. However, the yellow light will continue to flash until it is acknowledged, even if the next stop is below the warning time.
| Alarm Setting | The Alarm settings, when exceeded, will open a relay and not allow the press to cycle. It will display BRAKE FAULT on the LCD display and the ALARM Light will turn on. |
| Warning Setting | The Warning setting, when exceeded, will display BRAKE WARNING on the LCD display and the WARNING light will turn on. The brake warning light will continue to flash until it is acknowledged, even if the next stop time is below the warning setting. |
| Drift Fault | This fault is caused by the Brake Monitor seeing motion on the encoder without the clutch valve being engaged. When this is sensed, the Brake Monitor will open the stop relay and display DRIFT FAULT on the LCD display as well as turning on the red ALARM light. |
| No Motion Fault | This fault is caused by the Brake Monitor not seeing motion on the encoder, while the clutch is engaged. If motion is not achieved or motion is lost, the Brake Monitor will open the stop relay and display NO MOTION FAULT on the LCD display as well as turning on the red ALARM light. |
| Brake Test Mode | The Toledo Brake Monitor has a built in 90 degree stop test. This test mode will initiate a stop when the press moves 90 degrees from the time the clutch is engaged. When the press is stopped, the brake monitor will display the stopping time of the test - in milliseconds. |
