4.2.37 Dynamic braking (BRD) function
The dynamic braking (BRD) function is provided in the SJ700-220LFF/HFF and
other models that have the built-in BRD circuit.
With this function, the energy regenerated by the motor is consumed by an
external resistor (i.e., the energy is converted to heat). You can effectively use
this function in your system, for example, to operate the motor as a generator by
rapidly decelerating the motor.
To use this function, make the following settings:
Dynamic braking
usage ratio
Disabling the BRD operation
Setting of the dynamic braking usage ratio in units of
0.1%
The inverter will trip when the set rate is exceeded.
Usage rate (%) = 100
Disabling the BRD operation
Enabling the BRD operation while the motor is running
Disabling the BRD operation while the motor is stopped
Enabling the BRD operation regardless of whether the
motor is running
Dynamic braking
activation level
Level setting for 200 V class models
Level setting for 400 V class models
*1 The set dynamic braking activation level specifies the DC output voltage of the inverter's internal converter.
*2 Please refer P2-22 for minimum resistance of connectable resistor and BRD ratio (2.2.5).
4.2.38 Cooling-fan operation setting
The cooling-fan operation setting function allows you to specify the operation
mode of the inverter's internal cooling fan. The cooling fan can be operated on a
constant basis or only while the inverter is driving the motor.
Specifying that the fan operates on a constant basis
Specifying that the fan operates only while the inverter
is driving the motor.
Note that the fan operates for 5 minutes after the
inverter power is turned on and after the inverter is
stopped.
Note: The cooling fan stops automatically when instantaneous power failure occurs or the inverter power is shut off
and resume the operation after power recovered.
