The effective braking current can be calculated as follows:
I
effective
= I
max
. t
br
(min)
√ 5
seeing that: t
br
corresponds to the sum of the braking actuation times during the most
severe cycle of five minutes.
The power of the brake resistor must be calculated considering the deceleration time,
the inertia of the load and of the resistive torque.
