10.10 Holding brake control
This funcon is used for low-wear control of a holding brake.

ake is an important element of the machine's safety concept as
a whole. Therefore be sure to carry out commissioning of this system part with parcular
care!
•
Holding brakes on Lenze motor
s are not intended for braking during operaon. The
increased wear caused by braking during operaon may destroy the holding brake prema-
turely!
•
Ensure that the inverter builds up a sucient torque in the motor when releasing and
applying the holding brake, in order to hold the load. For this purpose, a voltage boost can
for instance be set for the V/f characterisc control. 4Voltage boost ^ 84
•
If the holding brake is to be controlled via a digital output, the use of an addional relay or
power contactor is required. The digital output is not suited for direct control of a holding
brake.
•
When a power contactor is used, the response me and release me of the contactor is
added to the engagement and disengagement me of the holding brake. Both mes must
also be taken into consideraon for parameterising the engagement and disengagement
me of the holding brake.
•
If, instead of an electrically releasing (self-holding) holding brake, an electrically holding
(self-releasing) holding brake is to be controlled, a signal inversion for the digital output
used or for the relay is to be set! 4Conguraon of digital outputs^ 215
•
If a switch-on delay is required, it has to be set for the digital output used or for the relay!

Details
Holding brakes are used for locking axes with controller inhibit or pulse inhibit, or if the sys-
tem is in the "mains o" stat
e. This is not only important for vercal axes but, for instance,
also for horizontal axes which may cause various problems with uncontrolled movements.
Examples:
•
Loss of the reference informaon aer mains OFF and further spinning of the drive.
•
Collision with other moving machine parts.
The holding brake can either be released automacally when the controller is enabled or
manually via a control signal. The holding brake control itself only outputs a digital trigger for
releasing the holding brake. This trigger can be assigned to a digital output or, in the easiest
case, to the relay which then switches the brake supply.

0 Automacally (via device state) The "Release holding brake" command is eected automacally when
the inverter is in the "Controller enable" state.
1 Manually The "Release holding brake" command is acvated by an external trig-
ger:
•
Via bit 14 in the CiA402 control word 0x6040.
•
Via the trigger assigned in 0x2631:049 (PAR 400/049) of the "Release
holding brake" funcon.
2 No braking funcon During normal operaon, brakes are neither controlled, nor detected,
nor monitored.
