MODEL CBA

Air or Hydraulically Actuated Combination Clutch-Brakes

Performance Characteristics

The Model CBA combination clutch-brake is an oil immersed
unit utilizing a self-contained cooling oil-pumping system and
capable of being actuated with either air or hydraulic
pressure.

These units are capable of running at higher speeds and
greater cyclic frequencies without exhibiting the wear
magnitudes common to clutches and brakes operating dry
under the same conditions.

Reliability and longevity are the most important features
these units have to offer and find usage in those
applications requiring the ultimate in clutch and brake
performance.

Over fifteen years of field experience shows intervals
between maintenance and machine up-time to increase from
five to ten times when oil immersed units are used as direct
replacements for those operating dry.

Industrial Clutch Products has designed the Model CBA unit
to be compatible and complementary to their dry unit
products. All of the desirable features found in our standard
line of dry products were carefully evaluated for
incorporation into the Model CBA combination clutch-brake.
The user may expect the lowest possible driven inertia;
fastest speed of response; and the same high quality
ruggedness contained throughout our product line.

The Model CBA unit was designed and developed as part of
our commitment to provide wide ranging and usefully
products for the heavy industrial marketplace. As a result,
the user has another level of performance from which to
choose.
