Functional description (see connection diagram)

After switching on the operating voltage on L1‘, L2‘ (3, 4 in the case of wide-voltage-range 
devices, option „B“), the main contactor interlock on the terminals 11, 12 and the operational 
status contact on the terminals 9, 10 as well as the fault signaling contact on the terminals 13, 14 
are closed. The motor can be started by pressing the ON-key.

After the start, the motor voltage is changed in two phases (L1 and L3) by a generalized phase 
control and power semiconductors. Starting out from an adjustable starting voltage 
(potentiometer „M“) the motor voltage is steadily increased. The motor torque rises over the 
adjusted acceleration time (potentiometer „t“) according to a ramp function up to the maximum 
value. When the starting time is over, the power semiconductors are bypassed by integrated 
relays and the motor is directly supplied with power from the mains.

The fully automatic run of the braking interval starts with the switch-off of the motor contactor K1 
which thereby closes the contact 5, 6. During braking, the motor contactor is interlocked via the 
contact 11, 12. After a delay time which, dependent on the amount of the remanent voltage of the 
the motor, optimizes itself, the integrated braking contactor pulls in. Afterwards, an adjustable d.c 
voltage is applied to the motor winding. The magnetic field resulting from this has a braking effect 
on the still rotating rotor. The d.c. voltage is generated with a thyristor phase control. Special 
circuits protect the power semiconductors against overvoltage. With the potentiometer „I“ the 
braking torque can be adjusted in wide ranges. Experience shows that a braking current 2.5 times 
as high as the rated motor current has a good braking effect.

Approx. 1.5s after a motor standstill has been detected, the integrated standstill detection 
(adaptable to the drive via potentiometer „n0“) switches the braking current off.
