Abstract
This disclosure relates to a system and method configured to identify and, if necessary, respond to conditions indicative of electromagnetic brake temperature, and in particular relates to passenger conveyers, such as elevators, employing the system and method. More specifically, an example passenger conveyer system includes an electromagnetic brake and a controller configured to identify a condition indicative of a temperature of the electromagnetic brake approaching a boundary of a predetermined operating range.
