Figure8-66 Simpli󹪝ed representation of dynamic braking with respect to time
The motor supplies regenerative power to the converter when braking. The regenerative
power means that the DC-link voltage in the converter increases. Above the activation
threshold for the braking module, the converter forwards the regenerative power to the
braking resistor. The braking resistor converts the regenerative power into heat, thereby
preventing converter faults due to excessive DC-link voltage.
Factory setting for the activation threshold for the braking module: 760V
NOTICE
Overload of motor insulation during braking
When the motor brakes, the DC-link voltage, and thus also the voltage load of the motor,
increases. Under unfavorable circumstances, the converter can overload the motor insulation
and damage the motor.
• Reduce the activation threshold for the braking module
