FAQs
The 7BBM3542 is designed for foot-mounted, horizontal installation with a standard drive-end flange. It fits 56 frame Baldor-Reliance motors and uses a Direct On Line starting method. For retrofits, align the motor shaft and brake shaft, secure the mounting feet, and connect through conventional 3‑phase wiring. Confirm ambient conditions are within 40 °C and ensure calibration follows the Dimension Diagram 34LY3108 for proper clearance.
Key specs include 0.75 HP output at 1725 r/min, voltage 208 V / 230 V / 460 V, 60 Hz, and 3-phase operation. Rated currents are 3.2 A, 3 A, and 1.5 A; the unit provides a 1.25 service factor and a shaft diameter of 0.63 in. It uses a direct-on-line brake engagement and features a TEFC enclosure suitable for harsh environments.
Yes. The brake is designed for 3-phase motors with TEFC protection, frame 56, and 60 Hz operation, making it ideal for conveyors and machine tools. Its compact form factor and reliable braking performance reduce line stoppages and improve cycle consistency, while the 0.75 HP rating matches many light-to-medium duty drives found in material handling and packaging lines.
The brake carries CSA and UR safety certifications, suitable for regulated industrial environments. It also uses a NEMA Design B configuration and a TEFC enclosure, aligning with common safety and performance expectations in United States manufacturing facilities.
With 0 day lead time and stock at multiple warehouses, the 7BBM3542 minimizes downtime and accelerates maintenance planning. Regreasable lubrication and a robust build reduce service intervals, while compatibility with existing Baldor-Reliance motors lowers spare-parts costs and simplifies inventory management, delivering faster changeovers and lower total cost of ownership.
