Twiflex offers a wide range of monitoring options for both caliper and modular brake types. This includes a number of IP67-rated inductive and analogue proximity sensors for brake status or pad condition.

In addition, electro-mechanical and limit switches are available as single or multi-function units and may be supplied fully sealed, with positive action safety switches.

Monitoring units are used to indicate:

• Brake on or off, or the fully retracted condition reached 
• Adjustment for pad wear required 
• Pad replacement needed 
• Any combination of the above
