GLOBE Airmotors — BN Brakes: Pneumatic Brakes for Industrial Use
BN Brakes from GLOBE Airmotors are purpose-built pneumatic brakes designed for demanding industrial environments. As part of our Pneumatische Remmen product group, BN Brakes deliver safe, durable and low-maintenance braking performance where electric systems are impractical or unsafe. BN Brakes are optimized for wet, explosive, corrosive or heavy-duty settings and provide reliable stopping power using compressed air rather than electricity.

Key features of BN Brakes
BN Brakes combine robust construction with straightforward operation. Important product attributes are highlighted below to help engineers and procurement teams specify the right solution quickly:

• Pneumatically actuated braking system using compressed air for ignition-free operation;
• Industrial-grade materials and sealing for long service life in harsh conditions;
• Low maintenance design with replaceable wear components and simple access for inspection;
• Adjustable braking torque and smooth engagement to protect driven equipment;
• Compact mounting options and compatibility with common industrial fittings.

These features make BN Brakes ideal when safety, reliability and minimal downtime are required.

Why choose BN Brakes from GLOBE Airmotors
Choosing BN Brakes means selecting a braking solution backed by GLOBE Airmotors' expertise in pneumatic vane air motors and related pneumatic powertrain components. BN Brakes are engineered to work where electric brakes cannot, reducing ignition risk in hazardous atmospheres and performing reliably in wet or dusty environments. With BN Brakes you get:

Proven durability for continuous industrial operation;

• Fail-safe design concepts appropriate for process and material handling applications;
• Easy integration with existing compressed-air systems;
• Lower lifecycle maintenance compared with electrically driven braking systems.

Applications and industries for BN Brakes
BN Brakes are widely used across industries that demand non-electric braking solutions. Typical applications include bulk material handling, conveyors, marine and offshore systems, mining equipment, chemical processing, and any zone requiring ATEX-appropriate components. BN Brakes excel where moisture, sparks, or electrical hazards make electric brakes unsuitable.

Technical advantages and serviceability
BN Brakes deliver technical advantages that reduce total cost of ownership. Service and support focus on rapid replacement of wear items, straightforward routine inspection, and compatibility with standard pneumatic controls.
Highlights include:

• Simple adjustment and calibration procedures to set braking torque and response;
• Corrosion-resistant finishes and sealed bearings to extend life in aggressive atmospheres;
• Modular components for quick field service and minimal downtime.

For operators seeking reliable pneumatic braking, BN Brakes offer a compelling combination of safety and performance.
