System Design
Regenerative Energy Absorption with an External Regeneration Resistor
If the regenerative energy exceeds the regeneration absorption capacity of the drive, connect
an External Regeneration Resistor.
Connect the External Regeneration Resistor between B1 and B2 terminals on the drive.
Double-check the terminal names when connecting the resistor because the drive may be
damaged if connected to the wrong terminals.
The External Regeneration Resistor will heat up to approx. 120C. Do not place it near
equipment and wiring that is easily affected by heat. Attach radiator plates suitable for the heat
radiation conditions.
