Design and Construction
- Explosion - Proof Design: The system is constructed using materials and components that are resistant to ignition and can withstand the effects of an internal explosion without causing an external one. This is achieved through the use of non - sparking materials, proper sealing techniques, and robust housing to contain any potential sparks or flames.
- Drum Brake Structure: It features a traditional drum brake design, where the braking force is applied by brake shoes that press against the inner surface of a rotating drum. The drum is typically made of high - strength cast iron or steel, providing durability and resistance to wear and heat. The brake shoes are lined with friction materials that are carefully selected for their high coefficient of friction, heat resistance, and long service life.
