Configuration
5.4 Braking resistor (armature short-circuit braking)
1FK2 synchronous motors for SINAMICS S120
62 Configuration Manual, 06/2019, A5E46927724B AB
The data in the following tables is calculated for rated values according to the data sheet.
The variance during production as well as iron saturation have not been taken into account
here. Higher currents and torques than those calculated can occur as a result of the
saturation.
Risk of fire caused by continuous overload
If the external braking resistor is continuously overloaded, for example as the result of a
defective braking chopper, this can cause an explosion or fire - resulting in death or severe
injury and/or could cause the housing to melt.
• Use only braking resistors that are intrinsically safe.
