[1] Resistor
brake
A brake resistor is incorporated in the system for
dissipation of surplus brake energy as heat.
Connecting a brake resistor allows a higher DC-
link voltage during braking (generating
operation). The brake resistor function is only
active in frequency converters with an integral
dynamic brake.
[2] AC brake Improves braking without using a brake resistor.
This parameter controls an overmagnetisation of
the motor when running with a generatoric load.
This function can improve the OVC-function.
Increasing the electrical losses in the motor
allows the OVC-function to increase braking
torque without exceeding the voltage limit.
NOTICE
The AC brake is not as efficient as
dynamic braking with resistor.
AC brake is for VVC
+
mode in both open
and closed loop.

Parameter 2-12 Brake Power Limit (kW) is the
expected average power dissipated in the
brake resistor over a period of 120 s. It is
used as the monitoring limit for 16-33 Brake
Energy /2 min and thereby specifies when a
warning/alarm is to be given.
To calculate parameter 2-12 Brake Power
Limit (kW), the following formula can be
used.
