4 - CORRECTIVE MAINTENANCE
Before any operation on the brake, always
disconnect the brake motor from its power supply
(Putting in writing).
4.1 - Tooling (not supplied)
Adjustment shims Air gap adjustment
Torque wrench Tightening for assembly of brake parts
wrench (M8/10/16, etc.)
Removal of the face plate, extension,
yoke, DLRA, DLM, DMD
Special socket Screw and unscrew the shaft end
extensions
Hub puller Splined ring removal
Bearing change: refer to manual §3.2
Mallet (leather or plastic) Lift the keys from the splined ring
Multimeter Voltage check
Ohmmeter (indicator lamp) Coil resistance measurement, micro-
contact adjustment
VLS assembly jet Gasket tting
Large at blade screwdriver Fan removal
2 threaded rods: M5
(FFB1), M6 (FFB2 and 3)
and M8 (FFB4 and 5)
and corresponding nuts
Retting the armature on yoke
2 large at blade
screwdrivers Fan removal
Always record the connections of the supply
wires and options before disconnection.
Similarly, record the position of anges with
respect to the stator and the fan's direction on the rotor.
4.2 - Removing the FFB brake motor
- Remove the brake motor using appropriate tools.
- Disconnect the brake motor from its supply.
- Open the terminal box, record the wires and their position
(supply of the brake motor, encoder, probes, etc.). Always
record the connections of the supply wires and options before
disconnection.
- Disconnect the supply wires from the motor and brake
supply terminal strips (+ and - terminals).
- Disconnect the rectier bridge and check the stator isolation
(> 10 MOhms).
- If the brake is tted with a DLRA, DLM or DMD system,
unscrew the lever rod(s) (item 1502, 1605).
- Unscrew the cover screws 27, remove the metal cover 13.
- Remove the fan 7 by removing the axial locking circlips 9.
- Extract the fan 7 using two screwdrivers as levers.
- Remove the VLS gasket 1402.
- Unscrew the xing screws from the yoke 1106.
- Remove the yoke 1105 from the brake, remove the O-ring
1107, extract the armature 1102 while recording its angular
position.
- Remove the brake disc 1101 while recording the assembly
direction (large hub shoulder on motor side).
- Unscrew the xing screws 1305 from the face plate, then
remove the face plate 1100.
- Unscrew the extension 1401 while blocking the drive shaft.
- Remove the circlips 1303.
- Extract the splined ring 1302 using a puller.
- Remove the keys 1301 from the ring.
- Find all the faulty parts to order spare parts. Refer to §2.
• Clean the parts:
- by blowing the electrical parts and the brake parts 1100 to
1108 (no solvents, no humid products);
- using a non greasy degreasing product for mechanical
parts (item 1101 excepted);
- using a scraper for joints.
• Change the gaskets and bearings. Refer to §2 and 3.
4.3 - Retting the FFB brake motor
Clean the bleeding ports and plugs before retting.
Verify that no pollution distorts item 1105.
Tightening screw according to NF E 25030-1 or
VDI2230.
- Reverse the procedure for retting: keys 1301, ring 1302,
face plate 1100 (with locating pin: position the outer spigot
opposite the coil cable), brake disc 1101.
- Position the armature 1102 (non through drill hole on one
face located at 9 o'clock with respect to the yoke cable) on
the yoke 1105 tted with its springs. Screw the two threaded
screws through the yoke into the armature while ensuring it
does not protrude the braking face (slight recess). Press the
armature onto the yoke using two nuts mounted onto the rods
(tighten each rod gradually).
- Install the O-ring 1107 inside its groove between the
armature 1102 and the yoke 1105.
- Mount the yoke and armature onto the face plate using the
xing screws 1106 (tighten to torque).
- Check that the brake disc turns freely.
- Remove the two threaded rods: the brake disc is blocked.
- Ret the fan 7 and its holding washers 8and 9.
- Ret the cover 13.
- Ret the control rod of the DLRA, DLM lever(s) if necessary.
If Encoder option: see §6.5
If Forced Ventilation option (VF) + Encoder: refer to §6.6 and
6.5.
Include sufcient
distance around the
brake for access and
intervention.
