AC30V series Variable Speed Drive 
Dynamic Braking Resistors 
We can supply suitable braking resistors, found on the following pages. Alternatively, you can use the calculation on page 5-5 to help you 
select alternative resistors. 
  We recommend using a thermal overload switch to protect the braking circuit. Refer to page 5-4. IMPORTANT
♦  The AC30V unit must be fitted with external braking resistors if braking is required.

Figure 5.1  External Braking Resistor 
Do not apply external voltage sources (mains supply or 
otherwise) to either of the braking terminals: DB+, DB. This can 
lead to damage to the drive and installation, and risk to
