Applied Robotics QS-200NP-T3 Brake Quick Stop Unit

The Applied Robotics QS-200NP-T3 Brake Quick-Stop Unit is a compact safety brake module designed to rapidly apply braking to industrial robots as part of the company’s QuickSTOP collision-protection system. Cataloged as QS-200NP-T3-S653, this brake-quick-stop unit weighs 1.34 lb and is designed for integration with standard robot adaptor interfaces. It is part of the QS QuickSTOP family, which includes models such as QS-7, QS-25, QS-50, QS-100, QS-200, QS-400, QS-800, QS-1500, QS-3000, QS-4500, and QS-7500, offering rapid stopping action across multiple configurations. The QuickSTOP design emphasizes fast response and controlled braking, typically achieved through an air-chamber actuation that engages the brake quickly when a collision or safety event is detected, helping to minimize damage to tooling and robot wrists. This unit is commonly used in automated production lines and robotic workcells where immediate stopping is required to protect personnel and equipment. The QS-200NP-T3 variant represents a specific NP-T3 configuration within Applied Robotics’ QuickSTOP lineup, addressing particular controller interfaces and mounting options—verify compatibility with your robot platform and adaptor plate before installation to ensure proper fit and operation.
