2.8. External Shunt Option [-SX1]
DANGER
: The shunt resistor dissipates a high quantity of power. To prevent the danger of
electric shock or fire, you must obey the precautions that follow:
l
Correctly size, mount, and protect the external shunt resistor.
l
Do not touch the shunt resistor terminals. There are lethal voltages on the ter-
minals.
l
Do not touch the surface of the drive or the external shunt resistor. The tem-
perature can exceed 70°C.
l
Restrict access to the shunt resistor while it is connected to a power source.
The -SX1 option provides a connection for a user-provided shunt resistor to dissipate excess energy and
keep the internal drive voltage within safe levels. The drive switches this resistor "ON" when the internal
bus voltage reaches approximately 380 VDC. This option is generally required for systems that have a
large amount of stored mechanical energy that must be dissipated during deceleration.
