***The calculation of the barking torque is based on 4-pole (1800 rpm) motor.
****For heat dissipation, a resistor of 400W or lower should be fixed to the frame and maintain the surface
temperature below 250
℃
(400
℃
); a resistor of 1000W and above should maintain the surface temperature
below 600
℃
.
1.
If damage to the drive or other equipment is due to the fact that the brake resistors and the brake modules
in use are not provided by Delta, the warranty will be void.
2.
Take into consideration the safety of the environment when installing the brake resistors.
3.
Definition for Brake Usage ED%
Explanation: The definition of the barking usage ED(%) is for assurance of enough time for the brake unit
and brake resistor to dissipate away heat generated by braking. When the brake resistor heats up, the
resistance would increase with temperature, and brake torque would decrease accordingly. Suggested
cycle time is one minute

ED% = T1/T0x100(%)
4. Please select the brake unit and/or brake resistor according to the table. “-“ means no Delta product.
Please use the brake unit according to the Equivalent Resistor Value.
5.
For safety reasons, install a thermal overload relay between brake unit and brake resistor. Together with
the magnetic contactor (MC) in the mains supply circuit to the drive it offers protection in case of any
malfunctioning. The purpose of installing the thermal overload relay is to protect the brake resistor against
damage due to frequent brake or in case the brake unit is continuously on due to unusual high input
voltage. Under these circumstances the thermal overload relay switches off the power to the drive. Never
let the thermal overload relay switch off only the brake resistor as this will cause serious damage to the
AC Motor Drive.
