 2.5 Single-Expanding Solenoid

Description For correct maintenance, it is important to fully understand the design of the brake system
used on geared machines by Schindler. All critical components must be properly identified
and any adjustment has to be applied as instructed. In case of doubt about how to proceed,
it is recommended to consult Schindler specialists before starting any maintenance work.
The brake system with single-expanding solenoid has the following features:
y Brake closing: Two brake arms (1) fitted with brake linings (16) and driven by spring
force press against the brake drum, thus applying braking torque to the machine.
y The closing force of the brake springs (6) is regulated by setting the compression with
the adjusting nut F (5) as required. Refer to instructions given in chapter 4.
y Brake opening: One single-expanding solenoid (11) working against the spring force
pushes the brake arms (1) away from the brake drum.
– It is essential that the brake drum rotates freely when the brake is open. The whole
brake lining (16) surface must not have any contact with the brake drum while the
brake is open.
– The magnetic force of the solenoid, which propels the plunger (9), is low at the
beginning of the brake opening movement and highest when the brake is fully
open. Therefore, the plunger stroke has to be regulated over the whole lifetime of
the machine to make sure that the single-expanding solenoid is able to open the
brake. Refer to instructions given in chapter 4.
y The function of the brake arm stops (14) consists in limiting the opening movement of
the brake arms (1). The brake arm stops (14) have to be regulated over the whole
lifetime of the machine depending on the amount of wear on the brake lining (16)
according to instructions given in chapter 4.
The regulation has to consider that:
– The plunger stroke shall be maximized to prolong the re-adjustment interval. The
plunger stroke is adjusted with the adjusting nut M (8).
– To avoid impact noise, the plunger (9) of the single-expanding solenoid must not
strike against the internal stroke limiter.
– The brake stop clearance S shall be kept as small as possible but the brake
arms (1) must open wide enough so that the whole contact surface of the brake
linings (16) is clearly apart from the brake drum. It is not permitted that the brake
lining (16) grazes on the brake drum. The brake stop clearance S is adjusted with
the countered adjusting nut F (5) after loosening the lock nut A (2).
y The brake linings (16) are fixed to the brake arm.
y One or two brake contacts (15) (if existing) monitor the movement of the brake arms (1)
and signal the brake open state to the elevator controller.
– If there are two brake contacts (15) (KB/KB1), the brake contacts must be adjusted
in such a way that they switch simultaneously. The adjustment has to be done
according to instructions given in chapter 4.
– Bear in mind that any brake contact error leads to blocking of the elevator for safety
reasons.

 2.6 Double-Expanding Solenoid

Description For correct maintenance, it is important to fully understand the design of the brake system
used on geared machines by Schindler. All critical components must be properly identified
and any adjustment has to be applied as instructed. In case of doubt about how to proceed,
it is recommended to consult Schindler specialists before starting any maintenance work.
The brake system with double-expanding solenoid has the following features:
y Brake closing: Two brake arms (1) fitted with brake linings (16) and driven by spring
force press against the brake drum, thus applying braking torque to the machine.
y The closing force of the brake springs (6) is regulated by setting the compression with
the adjusting nut F (3) as required. Refer to instructions given in chapter 4.
y Brake opening: One double-expanding solenoid (9) working against the spring force
pushes the brake arms (1) away from the brake drum.
– It is essential that the brake drum rotates freely when the brake is open. The whole
brake lining (16) surface must not have any contact with the brake drum while the
brake is open.
– The magnetic force of the double-expanding solenoid, which propels the
plungers (8), is low at the beginning of the brake opening movement and highest
when the brake is fully open. Therefore, the plunger stroke has to be regulated
over the whole lifetime of the machine to make sure that the double-expanding
solenoid is able to open the brake. Refer to instructions given in chapter 4.
y The function of the brake arm stops (7) consists in limiting the opening movement of
the brake arms (1). The brake arm stops (7) have to be regulated over the whole lifetime
of the machine depending on the amount of wear on the brake lining (16) according to
instructions given in chapter 4.
The regulation has to consider that:
– The plunger stroke shall be maximized to prolong the re-adjustment interval. The
plunger stroke is adjusted with the adjusting bolt M (2) with lock nut.
– To avoid impact noise, the plungers (8) of the double-expanding solenoid must not
strike against the internal stroke limiter.
– The brake stop clearance S shall be kept as small as possible but the brake
arms (1) must open wide enough so that the whole contact surface of the brake
linings (16) is clearly apart from the brake drum. It is not permitted that the brake
lining (16) grazes on the brake drum. The brake stop clearance S is adjusted with
the countered adjusting nut F (3) after loosening the lock nut A (4).
y The brake linings (16) are fixed to the brake arm (1).
y One or two brake contacts (10) (if existing) monitor the movement of the brake arms (1)
and signal the brake open state to the elevator controller.
– If there are two brake contacts (10) (KB/KB1), the brake contacts must be adjusted
in such a way that they switch simultaneously. The adjustment has to be done
according to instructions given in chapter 4.
– Bear in mind that any brake contact error leads to blocking of the elevator for safety
reasons.

WARNING
Braking Action Impaired by Mounted Manual Brake Release Lever
When the manual brake release lever remains mounted on the brake during elevator
operation, the function of the brake could be impaired, resulting in damage to the installation
or in serious injury or death.
Before putting the elevator in operation, make sure that the manual brake release lever is
removed and stored at the designated place.

Repairs Repairs on the brake system are not considered preventive maintenance work. Any repairs
are strongly recommended to be done by Schindler.

Maintenance Plan The preventive maintenance tasks listed in Table 8 are mandatory and must be performed
irrespective of the requirements of national codes and standards and of contractual
stipulations.
The recommended maintenance activity intervals refer to normal use of the elevator under
normal conditions. Intervals shall be reconsidered by the maintenance company, for
example, based on the actual use, frequency of use or environmental aspects. In addition,
stronger national legislation always prevails.

 3.2 Checks

3.2.1 General Checks

WARNING
Braking Action Impaired by Contaminated Brake
Reduced braking action of the brake on the machine could result in damage to the
installation or in serious injury or death.
For correct braking action of the brake on the machine:
y Do not lubricate any part of the brake to avoid any contamination of the brake.
y Do not use any solvent for the cleaning of the solenoid.

Brake and Brake Check the general condition of the brake and the brake drum.
Drum Most important issues signalizing problems with the brake:
1) Abnormally slow movement of the brake arms or incomplete opening of the brake. For
corrective action see Chapter 7.
2) The brake arms (rear part of the linings) on the VF or Dynatron S/MV drive are hot. The
brake arms are too hot to be touched, or the heat generates smell. For corrective action,
see Chapter 7.
3) In case of VF or Dynatron S/MV drives: The brake linings show signs of wear, or dust
(abrasion) from the brake linings is found on the surrounding surfaces. For corrective
action, see Chapter 7.
4) Dirt, dust or signs of oil and grease is found on the brake drum.
y Clean the brake drum, being particularly careful to clean and degrease with solvent
all areas on the brake drum that have become oily or greasy. Replace all the brake
linings at the same time, if contaminated with oil.
y Eliminate the root cause of the oil/grease contamination.
For Dynatron S/MV or VF drives: Any wear on the brake lining may be a sign of a weak
solenoid. Refer to Section 7.6.

Impact Noise Check the brake for any unusual noise:

y If a loud, metallic impact noise can be heard while the solenoid opens the brake, check if
the solenoid plunger strikes too hard against its internal stroke limiter.
y If the brake closes with impact noise from the plunger, check the opening clearance of
the brake arm S. The opening clearance may have increased due to wear on the brake
lining.
For adjustment, see Sections 4.3 ... 4.7.

Brake Arm Check the correct brake arm opening.

Opening y Both brake arms must move evenly and sufficiently. The brake drum must be able to turn
freely without any rubbing or scratching.
y The brake contact KB, KB1 must switch shortly before the brake has fully opened.
If necessary, readjust the brake arm stops, the plunger stroke position, the brake springs
and the brake contact KB, KB1 according to Chapter 4. For troubleshooting see also
Chapter 7.

Leveling With the car empty, check that the maximum overtravel in the upward direction is within the
Accuracy following limits:
y Single-speed EG: +30 mm
y Two-speed FA or Dynatron 2: +10 mm
For adjustment, see Sections 4.2 ... 4.7.

Error Log Check the error log for any KB error. For corrective action, see Section 7.5.

 3.2.2 Check of Plunger Stroke

DANGER
Braking Action Prevented by Missing Air Gap
A missing air gap prevents correct braking action and will result in damage to the installation
or in serious injury or death.
For correct braking action, verify that:
y For single-expanding solenoid, the stroke reserve R is not negative.
y For double-expanding solenoid, the air gap G is not zero.

Procedure y The pin (2, Figure 6), which is inserted through the eye bolt (1) and the plunger (6), must
Single-Expanding be horizontal and the stroke indicator (3) must be in the same horizontal plane.
Solenoid y The stroke indicator (3) must be sealed.
If the stroke indicator (3) is not sealed, check the overlap (X) as described in Section 4.3
and shown in Figure 18 of Section 5.4.
After checking, seal the stroke indicator (3) with permanent marking.
y The stroke reserve R must be > 0 (Figure 6).
If R ≈ 0, adjust according to Section 4.3 ... 4.6.
y Make sure the clearance between the pin (2) and the stroke indicator (3) is > 1 mm.
See Figure 6. If necessary, insert a thin adjusting washer (8) between the clevis and the
retaining washer on the outer side of the clevis.
y If applicable, check if the LED (red) on the ESM box blinks or is on.
In either case, see Section 7.8 for corrective action.
y If there is no stroke indicator (3):
– Initiate a travel.
– Check the opening movement of the plunger.
The opening movement must be ≤ 4.5 mm.
> 1 mm

Note: Brake adjustment required if
clearance is ≤ 1 mm.
* Exception: For solenoid type 10D
(with total stroke Y = 2x 3.5 mm), brake
adjustment required if clearance ≤ 2 mm.

3.2.3 Check of KB Function (if existing)

The function of the brake contacts (KB, KB1) is to prevent car movement while the brake is
closed.
y The brake contacts KB and KB1 must switch shortly before the brake has fully opened. If
necessary, adjust the brake contacts as described in Section 4.5.
y Switch KB, then KB1 by hand and initiate a travel. The error log, if available, should
indicate a KB failure. If any car movement occurs, the brake contacts KB and KB1 have
failed. Eliminate the root cause as described in Section 7.5.

3.2.4 Check of Rubber Bellows (old design)

Procedure Rubber bellows exist both on single-expanding and double-expanding solenoid brakes.
Hardened or split rubber bellows have to be replaced as described in section 5.3.

 3.2.5 Check of Brake Linings

Brake Wear Unusually quick wear of the brake lining on EA or FA installations or wear of the brake lining
when used as a holding brake in a regulated drive system, may be a sign of wrong
adjustment of the brake or malfunction of the solenoid. For corrective action, see
Chapter 7.

Procedure y Check that the backing plate (2) of the brake lining (1) rests closely against the brake
arm (3) without any gap. If there is a gap, replace the brake lining (1).
y Check that the thickness of the brake linings (1), including the backing plate (2) is:
– > 2.0 mm at the top.
– > 4.5 mm at the middle.
If the thickness of the brake linings is outside the required value, replace brake linings as
described in Section 5.2.

3.2.6 Check of Braking Force at VKI

Procedure y With the car empty, perform an emergency stop while traveling upward at inspection
speed VKI. The car must stop within 1 second.
If the stopping time is > 1 second, check the following:
y The brake drum is free of oil.
y The brake drum has no scratches. For corrective action, see Chapter 7.
y The brake spring setting dimension E is according to Table 17.
y The stroke indicator is set according to Section 3.2.2.
y Non of the problems described in Chapter 7 have occurred.
y Perform one of the measurement procedures described in Section 3.2.7.

 3.2.7 Check of Braking Force with "Clock Dial" or "Brake Slide Method"

Overview The braking force must be checked by measuring the braking distance during an
emergency stop. The check is performed with empty car from the bottom floor in upward
direction at rated speed VKN.
The braking force can be measured by the "Clock Dial Method" on the traction sheave or by
the "Brake Slide Method" on the suspension ropes.

Preparation of the Carry out all checks, described in Section 3.2.6 before performing the test at rated
"Clock Dial speed (VKN).
Method"
Procedure of the y Make a clearly visible mark on the traction sheave. For high speed traction sheaves,
"Clock Dial make sure to mark the hub (inner part of the traction sheave).
Method" y With the car empty, move the car upward while accelerating to rated speed VKN.
y Trigger an emergency stop at the moment when the mark on the traction sheave is at
the top (in clock dial position 00.00’).
y When the traction sheave has stopped, check the clock dial position of the mark on the
traction sheave. Compare the result with the value indicated in Table 10 (for example: a
clock dial measurement of 02.30’ = 2 hours 30 minutes = 2 1/2 revolutions).
Pay attention to the turning direction. The measured clock dial shall be equal to or
lower (maximum 40%) than the value indicated in Table 10.
y If a correction is necessary, refer to paragraph "Corrections".

Example of Braking is initiated at the moment when the mark on the traction sheave is at the top
Braking Force (0 hours 0 minutes).
Calculation with For example: For an elevator with 2:1 reeving, a rated speed of 1.6 m/s and a traction
Clock Dial sheave diameter of 570 mm, the traction sheave should come to a stop when the mark on
Method the traction sheave is at the position 02.02' (maximum).
(2 hours 2 minutes). This means that the traction sheave has made approximately two
revolutions during the braking. The shortest allowed stop position, considering the 40%
tolerance, would be at 01.13' (minimum), that is:
2 x 60’ + 2’ = 122’
122’ x (100 -40% / 100) = 73’ = 1.13’

Preparation of the y Identify the rated speed VKN of the elevator.

"Brake Slide y Identify the expected brake sliding distance "Braking Distance of Ropes" in Table 10.
Method" y Carry out all checks at inspection speed VKI before performing the test at rated speed
VKN. Verify the results of all checks performed at inspection speed VKI. In case of any
doubts, investigate on the results before starting the test at rated speed VKN.

Procedure of the y Place the car at a position in the middle of the hoistway.
"Brake Slide y Switch off the main switch JH.
Method" y Make a clearly visible reference mark on the suspension ropes, and a corresponding
mark in the machine room to detect a possible belt slip.
y Run elevator at rated speed from bottom floor in the up direction. When the mark on the
main ropes passes the mark in the machine room, trigger an emergency stop.
y Measure the braking slide distance and compare with the value "Braking Distance of
Ropes" in Table 10.
y If a correction is necessary, refer to paragraph "Corrections".

Corrections y With DYNATRON 2 drives, the setting already made for setting dimension E
(Section 4.2) should not be extended, even if the stopping distance is too short.
y If the ropes are sliding on the traction sheave during the emergency stop, the brake
performance is good, provided that the traction of the traction sheave is acceptable.
Check the traction as follows:
– Place the empty car at the bottom floor.
– Make a straight line across the traction sheave and the ropes
– Perform a full travel upward and downward and bring the car into the original
position.
– Measure the deviation between the mark on the traction sheave and the marks on
the ropes.
– Compare the deviation value with the maximum permitted slip value [mm]:
HQ [m] x KZU.
y If the ropes do not slide on the traction sheave during the emergency stop and the value
of the clock dial measurement exceeds the permitted value:
– If the brake is only used as a holding brake with closed loop control, burnish the
brake linings by carrying out several emergency stops. After the emergency stops,
perform several long travels to cool down the brake drum.
– Check the braking force again, using the "clock dial method". If the clock dial result
value is still outside the permitted range, adjust the braking force according to
Section 4.6. Also check the installation data and the balancing of the car and
counterweight.

Procedure y Place a wooden wedge (13) (Figure 11) underneath the single-expanding solenoid to
Single-Expanding support the single-expanding solenoid in horizontal position.
Solenoid y If the clevis lock nut (5) is loose only, proceed as follows:
– Loosen the adjusting nut (1) and the lock nut (2).
– Determine the total stroke of the plunger (Y) and compare it with the value indicated
on the nameplate (see Section 2.1).
– If the total stroke of the plunger (Y) is outside the tolerance (see Table 15), adjust
the total stroke of the plunger (Y) by turning the clevis lock nut (5).
– Counter the clevis lock nut (5) and the clevis (4) against each other.
y Make sure that there is a lateral clearance > 1 mm between the clevis pin (3) and the
stroke indicator (6), see Figure 10a. If the clevis pin (3) is too close to the stroke
indicator (6), insert a thin washer (7) between the clevis (4) and the retaining washer.
y Make sure there is no washer under the adjusting nut M (1), Figure 10a.
y Release the adjusting nut M (1) and the lock nut (2) far enough to check the total
stroke Y and the stroke indicator (6):
– Check the total stroke Y by moving the plunger from one stroke limitation to the
other. For the disk-type stroke indicator, slightly turn the pin away to avoid damage
to the stroke indicator disk, see Figure 6.
For the reference values, refer to Table 15. Compare the measured value of the
total stroke Y with the value indicated on the nameplate (for an example of a
nameplate, refer to Figure 1).
Replace the single-expanding solenoid, if the total stroke Y is shorter than the value
indicated on the nameplate or the reference values indicated in Table 15.
– Check and replace the single-expanding solenoid if there is noticeable and
abnormal mechanical resistance of the plunger while moving and turning the
clevis (4) by hand.
– Push the plunger back to its internal limiter.
For the disk-type stroke indicator, slightly turn the pin away to avoid damage to the
stroke indicator disk. There must be an overlap (X), according to the reference
values in Table 15, as an emergency over-stroke reserve, refer to Figure 10b.
– Verify the seal on the stroke indicator. Seal it if not yet sealed or if readjusted.

 4.4 Brake Arm Stop

The procedure below is reserved for trained maintenance experts.

Procedure Release the brake electrically and run the machine.

y For brake solenoids 10E/11E/13E and 10D/11D/13D/14D, on both sides:
– Loosen the lock nut A.
– Reduce the clearance S by turning the adjusting nut F until the brake lining rubs
gently against the brake drum. Turn the adjusting nut F a little in the opposite
direction until the brake drum turns freely.
– Tighten the lock nut A.
y For brake solenoids 14E/16E, on both sides:
– Loosen the lock nut B.
– Reduce the clearance S by turning the adjusting nut C until the brake lining rubs
gently against the brake drum.
– Turn the adjusting nut C a little in the opposite direction until the brake drum turns
freely.
– Tighten the lock nut B.
– Adjust the brake spring.
Run the motor in both directions and check the setting after applying the brake several
times.
If the solenoid plunger strikes against the internal stroke limiter when the brake is released
(a loud, clear impact noise), adjust the nuts/bolts M to move the plunger a little into the
solenoid.
The clearance S has to be kept minimal but the brake linings must not touch the hot brake
drum when the brake is released. Check the clearance of the brake linings with a 0.05 mm
gauge on the hot brake drum after executing several emergency stops.
Recheck the air gap G (see Table 16) and the abrasion reserve R (see Table 15).
If it is smaller than the reference value, proceed according to Section 7.2.

 4.6 Final Setting Brake Springs and Braking Distance

Brake Only if cleaning the brake drum (Section 3.2.1) and burnishing the brake linings (by
Adjustment carrying out several emergency stops) do not get the required increase in braking force (as
measured in Section 3.2.8), is it permitted to increase the braking force by further
compressing the brake springs.
The setting dimension E for a certain solenoid must not be set shorter then value Emin, nor
longer than Emax as indicated in Table 17.

General The adjustment of the braking force affects the leveling accuracy of drives without closed-
loop control and the braking distance in emergency stops.
With single-speed and two-speed drives, leveling accuracy differs between the full load and
zero load conditions. Be reminded that improving the leveling accuracy too much could
result in excessive braking forces, which would adversely affect ride comfort.

When the spring is correctly adjusted to Enom, it may appear that the spring is almost fully
compressed.

Procedure y With all drives, the braking distance in an emergency stop, measured according to
Section 3.2.7, must be equal or shorter than the prescribed value in Table 10.
y Adjust the braking force setting in a similar way to that described in Section 4.2
(Compress Brake Springs) until the braking distance is within the prescribed range
indicated in Table 10.
With DYNATRON 2 drives, the setting already made for setting dimension Enom
(Section 4.2) should not be elongated, even if stopping distance is too short.
y Make sure that:
– Both springs have the same setting dimension E. The value must be within the
range indicated in Table 17.
– The brake linings do not rub against the brake drum when the brake is released.
– For double-expanding solenoid only, an air gap > 1.0 mm is maintained.
Refer to Table 16.
y Repeat the entire checking process according to Chapter 3 with special attention to the
function of the brake contact. For the correct setting and adjustment of the brake
contact, refer to Section 4.5.
y Observe the temperature of the brake drum during 15 minutes of operation. A
temperature rise indicates contact between brake lining and brake drum while the
machine is running. In this case increase the brake opening movement according to
Section 4.4.
y In case the brake distance is still too long, replace the brake lining. Also check the
installation data and the balancing of the car and counterweight.

 4.7 Brake Actuation for DYNATRON 2

Applicability Machines with DYNATRON 2 Drives without Soft Start Option and with a Single Expanding
Solenoid

General PCB BLD 42.T causes the solenoid current to rise slowly within an adjustable period and
allows a soft, braked start.

Procedure The PCB is set as follows:

y With solenoids of the 10E and 11E types, which have a rated current of less than 1.6 A,
resistor R26 (Figure 16) should be removed

Figure 16 PCB BLD 42.T [17685; 19.07.2006]

y Turn the two potentiometers P1 and P2 as far as they will turn in the counter-clockwise
direction.
y Short out sockets BU1 and BU2 temporarily with a (stranded) jumper wire.
y Close the brake solenoid circuit by engaging the appropriate contactors. The brake
should release after 3 … 4 s. If it fails to do so, turn potentiometer P1 slowly in the
clockwise direction until the brake does release. To check, allow the brake contactor to
de-energize and then engage it again. The brake should now release after 3 … 4 s.
y Remove the jumper wire.
y If required, potentiometer P2 can be used to adjust the releasing movement of the brake
to give an ideally comfortable start. The releasing movement should not however take
longer than a maximum of 0.2 s (or the MH may overheat).

4.8 Setting Ride Comfort for DYNATRON 2

Applicability Machines with DYNATRON 2 Drives without Soft Start Option and with Double Expanding
Solenoid

General This setting is made with the "brake-release comfort" timer (ZKB) and by varying the force
applied by a brake spring.

Procedure Set timer ZKB to approximately its 50 % setting and start the elevator by making a call.
When the brake releases, one side of it should release with a clear delay.
The brake contact signal must be supplied by the brake arm that releases without a delay.
Now set the force applied by the brake spring on the delayed side so that the motor is just
able to move the car at the time of a start.
By varying the delay time and the force applied by the spring, the ZKB can be set for
optimum ride comfort with a starting jerk that can hardly be felt in the car. Care must
however be taken to see that the delayed system still performs the required braking action.
The dimension E must be set within the value indicated in Table 17. Refer to Section 4.6.

 5.2 Brake Linings

WARNING
Braking Action Impaired by Incorrect Replacement of Brake Linings
Reduced braking action could result in damage to the installation or in serious injury or
death.
For correct braking action, always replace the brake linings in pairs.

Spare Parts As described in Chapter 6.

Procedure y Make sure that the car is empty.

y Position the counterweight on the buffer.
y Turn off the main switch JH.
y Dismantle the KB/KB1 brake contacts.
y Disconnect the brake arms from the brake solenoid.
y Unscrew the socket screws of the brake linings.
y Pivot the brake arms outwards to allow linings to be replaced.
If the brake arm on the side next to the traction sheave cannot be pivoted out far
enough, it must be removed from the pivot pin. To achieve this, it may be necessary to
move a smaller motor.
The linings are less curved than the brake arms and as a result, tightening the socket
screws tensions them against the arms.
y When the socket screws have been tightened, the backing plates on the linings should
be resting flat against the arms throughout their entire length with no gaps. The socket
screw must not protrude from the nut of the backing plate.
y Reassemble brake in the reverse order.
y Set and adjust the brake as described in Chapter 4.
y Perform 10 travels in each direction, terminating each with an emergency stop and, after
several long trips to cool down the brake linings, adjust brake again as described in
Chapter 4.

 7 Troubleshooting

7.1 Brake Jams in Released Position when Released Manually

Cause Brake jams in released position when the brake has been released manually can only
happen with W163 machines with single expanding solenoids 13E and brake arms as
shown in Figure 19, A. What happens is that the manual release lever gets caught between
the brake arm and the solenoid and holds the brake released.

Corrective Action Shorten the existing manual brake release lever (1) by 8 mm or fit brake arm as shown in
Figure 19, B.

 7.2 Required Plunger Stroke for Brake Opening is too Long

Checks y Make sure that the steel back of the brake shoe and the cast iron brake arm fit tightly
without showing any gap. If there is a gap causing spring effect, replace all the brake
shoes at the same time.
y If there is a gap between the upper part of the lining and the brake drum, then the lining
is too thick (7.5 +0/-0.5). In this case replace the all the linings at the same time.
y Check the contact of the brake lining on the brake drum.
– If the contact is limited to the bottom edge of the lining, grind off this area of the
brake lining, or replace all the brake linings at the same time.
– If the contact surface is too small (less than 30 %) or asymmetric, perform several
emergency stops to grind-in the brake lining. After the emergency stops, perform
several long travels to cool down the brake drum. Replace all the brake linings at
the same time, if necessary.

7.3 Unusual Wear on Brake Lining

Checks For Dynatron S/MV or VF drives: No significant abrasion on the brake lining must occur.
Any sign of wear is a hint for malfunction of the brake. Proceed as described in Section 7.5
and 7.6.

7.4 KB Error

Checks / 1) Check/correct the supply voltage of the solenoid. See Section 3.2.9.
Corrective Action 2) Check/correct the setting dimension of the brake spring. See Table 17 in Section 4.6.
3) In case of EG or FA: Readjust the plunger stroke position. See Chapter 4.
4) In case of Dynatron or VF drive: Investigate the reason of the wrong adjustment. Any
wear can be a sign of a weak solenoid.
5) Check/correct the KB function:
– Replace defective KB contacts.
– Readjust the KB contacts as described in Section 4.5.
– Manually keep the KB contacts in brake closed position one after the other and
initiate a travel. The drive must not be able to start.
If after successful completion of all five checks described above, the problem (abnormally
slow movement or KB error) still occurs, replace the solenoid as described in Section 5.4.
The error may be caused due to the weakness of the solenoid running under hot conditions.

7.5 Abnormally Slow or No Brake Opening

Checks If the KB function is operational, proceed as described in Section 7.4.

If no KB function is operational, proceed as follows:
1) Check/correct the supply voltage of the solenoid. See Section 3.2.9.
2) Check/correct the setting dimension of the brake spring. See Table 17 in Section 4.6.
If after successful completion of both checks described above, the problem still exists,
replace the solenoid as described in Section 5.4. The error may be caused due to the hot
conditions.

 7.6 Excessive Temperature on Brake Arm or Brake Drum

Checks Proceed as described in Section 7.5:

y For Dynatron or VF drives: If the brake arm or the brake drum have become too hot to be
touched.
y If the performance of the brake solenoid is too slow.
y If heat generated smell occurs.

7.7 Brake Operating Noises

y Readjust the brake as described in Chapter 4, in particular Section 4.4.

y Measure loud impact or squeaking noises by MK5 and have the results evaluated by
Schindler After Sales Services.

7.8 Electronic Stroke Monitoring (ESM) Indicating Failure

Checks and See the maintenance instruction of ESM.

Corrective Action

7.9 Plunger Stroke End Switch KKB Switched Off

Corrective Action y For one speed elevators EG or FA: Reset the brake as described in Chapter 4.
y For Dynatron or VF drives: Proceed as described in Section 7.5.
