MDP90A-0250, 0500, 0750, 1100 power supply module
If an BW...-T braking resistor with internal temperature switch is used with a 25 –
110kW power supply module, there are 3 possible connections.

• Connection 1
– If the thermal circuit breaker trips, the signal in the power supply module is
evaluated.
– This does not require a response by the PLC.
– It is not required to disconnect the supply system connection with an external
switching device.
– If the thermal circuit breaker trips, the power supply module interrupts the
power supply by inhibiting the rectifier.
– If the thermal circuit breaker trips, the power supply module switches all axis
modules to "Output stage inhibit".
• Connection 2
– If the thermal circuit breaker trips, the signal in the PLC is evaluated.
– If the thermal circuit breaker trips, the PLC must interrupt the power supply.
– If the thermal circuit breaker trips, there is no response in the power supply
module and the axis modules.
– With connection 2, it is possible that the PLC finishes the current travel cycle al-
though the thermal circuit breaker has tripped. Only then, the power supply is
disconnected. In this case, the residual braking energy W

× 20 s
must not be exceeded.
• Connection 3
– If the thermal circuit breaker trips, the signal directly affects the line contactor.
