2.8 Braking Unit Model Selection Guide
2.8.1 Resistor Value Selection
The regenerative energy of the motor is almost all consumed in the braking resistor when braking.
According to formula
U*U/R=Pb
In formula U---braking voltage when system is stability braking (different system with different value,
for AC380V system, it generally take DC700V)
Pb----braking power
2.8.2 Braking Resistor Power Selection
Theoretically, braking resistor power is the same with braking power, but in consideration that the
de-rating is 70%,
According to formula: 0.7Pr=Pb*D
Pr----power of resistor
D----braking frequency (percentage of regenerating process account for the complete process)
Elevator----20%~30%
Uncoiling and recoiling----20%~30%
Centrifuge----50%~60%
Accidental braking loading----5%
General take 10%
