4.1 Brake Resistor Calculation
To ensure the optimal selection of brake resistor for a
given application, its inertia and braking profile
calculations are required.
This chapter explains the calculations required to obtain
values for optimal selection of brake resistor for a given
application.

Calculation of Brake Resistor
Resistance
To prevent the frequency converter from cutting out for
protection when the motor brakes, select resistor values on
the basis of the peak braking power and the intermediate
circuit voltage:

The brake resistor performance depends on the DC-link
voltage (U
dc
).
U
dc
is the voltage, where the brake is activated. The FC-
series brake function is settled depending on the mains
supply.
