ABB ACSM1 - Single Braking Chopper; Multiple Braking Choppers

25
Single braking chopper
In this case only one braking chopper of a drive module in the common DC
system is used. It is recommended to use the chopper of the drive module,
which have the highest braking power ratings. The following conditions
should be fulfilled:
•
cont,brave,gen
PP <
•
,maxbr,maxgen
PP <
If the conditions can not be fulfilled, either a drive module with higher P
br
ratings can be selected (if feasible) or a multiple braking chopper
configuration can be used.
Multiple braking choppers
In case two or more braking choppers of drive modules are active in the
common DC system, the same conditions as above must still be fulfilled.
