CQP-A Series Pneumatic Disc Brake

✔ Normally Open - Air to Clamp, Air Off to Release

CQP-A is a normally open pneumatic caliper disc brake. With no air supply, the brake pads retract and the disc rotates freely. Apply compressed air (4–6 bar) → both caliper arms close simultaneously → pads clamp the brake disc. Designed specifically for clamping, tensioning, and holding duty - the opposite logic of a fail-safe emergency brake.

✔ Air Pressure = Clamping Force (Infinitely Adjustable)

Clamping force scales linearly with air pressure. One turn of your regulator valve changes force from light positioning to full-load braking. No spring preload adjustment, no torque scale guessing. One caliper covers multiple duty levels.

✔ Zero Oil / Spark-Free / Explosion-Friendly

Pure pneumatic actuation - no hydraulic oil, no electric motor on the caliper. No combustible fluid, no ignition source. Inherently safe for coal mine, chemical plant, flour mill, paint shop. Optional Ex d flameproof solenoid valve available.

Products Description

The CQP-A Series is a range of pneumatic caliper disc brakes built for work-holding, tension control, and positioning applications where fail-safe stopping is NOT the primary requirement. Instead of "stop the load when power fails," CQP-A answers: "hold this load exactly where it is, with adjustable force, as long as air is supplied."

It is the missing piece in your brake lineup - completing the three-way coverage:

Logic	Series	Best For
Fail-safe NC (power/air off = brake ON)	QW (pneumatic) / YW (electro-hydraulic)	Emergency stop, hoist safety
Work-hold NO (air on = brake ON)	CQP-A (this series)	Clamping, tension, positioning

Typical Applications:

Wind turbine yaw lock - hold nacelle position against wind torque
Coiler / uncoiler tension brake - adjustable back-tension on strip line
Cable winch parking - hold rope tension when operator steps away
Rolling mill coil car - clamp coil during transfer
Conveyor transfer stop - positive positioning of pallets/carts
Port grab bucket rotation lock - hold bucket angle during lift
