MAGNETIC HOLDER [Model KEP]

KEP-9C

Electromagnet release type

[Features]
Permanent magnetic holder for long time attraction without trouble of dropping due to power failure. It is turned ON/OFF with electric control.
Magnetic force turns OFF (releases) by power supply control and it is turned ON at all other times.
The interruptible power supply is not required.

How to Use

Power source is 24 VDC. When using 4 holders at the same time, connect their wires in series and use them with power of 96 VDC.
In this case, a voltage variable rectifier (e.g. KR-T205) enables adjustment of the demagnetizing voltage (power on amount at OFF) to facilitate operation.

Release Only at Power Supply

The power-on time must be 5 seconds or less. The power-off time must be 10 times or long,er.

Residual Magnetism

As an inevitable nature of the permanent electromagnetic holder, 3% to 4% of the holding power will remain as residual holding power even when it is released. If the weight of the lifted workpiece is lighter that this holding power, it may not be released. In such a case, the workpiece can be released easily by attaching a thin nonmagnetic film on the attractive face. But, the holding power will drop in squared proportion.
