Table D-8 Brake unit signals for SP model VFDs
Note:
1. Select brake resistors according to the resistance and power data provided by our company.
2. The brake resistor may increase the brake torque of the VFD. The preceding table describes the
resistance and power for 100% brake torque, 10% brake usage, 50% brake usage, and 80% brake
usage. You can select the brake system based on the actual operation conditions.
3. When using an external brake unit on a standard model VFD, set the brake voltage class of the
brake unit properly by referring to the manual of the dynamic brake unit. If the voltage class is set
incorrectly, the VFD may not run properly.
Do not use brake resistors whose resistance is lower than the specified minimum resistance.
VFDs do not provide protection against overcurrent caused by resistors with low resistance.
