Braking operaon without addional measures
To decelerate small masses, the "DC
injecon brake DCB" funcon can be parameterised. DC-
injecon braking enables a quick deceleraon of the drive to standsll without the need for
an external brake resistor.
•
A c
ode can be used to select the braking current.
•
The maximum braking torque to be realised by the DC braking current amounts to approx.
20 ... 30 % of the rated motor torque. It is lower compared to braking acon in generator
mode with e
xternal brake resistor.
•
Automac DC-injecon braking (Auto-DCB) improves the starng performance of the motor
when the operaon mode without speed feedback is used.
Braking operaon with external brake resistor
To decelerate greater moments of inera or with a longer operaon in generator mode an
external brake resistor is required. It converts braking energy into heat.
The brake resistor is connected if the DC-bus voltage exceeds the switching threshold. übers-
chreitet. This prevents the controller from seng pulse inhibit through the "Overvoltage" fault
and the drive from coasng. The external brake resistor serves to control the braking process
at any me.
The brake chopper integrated in the controller connects the external brake resistor.
