•
It is strongly recommended to use an external fuse to limit the maximum power dissipation according to the
chosen shunt resistor.
•
Wire section should be, at least, like the motor wires
.
• Shunt resistor connections should be as short as possible to reduce parasitic inductances.
Shunt resistor calculation tool
Additional information on shunt braking resistor sizing and a calculation tool can be found
.
Hot surfaces
Be careful, shunt resistor may have hot surfaces during operation.
Configuration of the shunt
The shunt transistor can be configured using parameters in the register
.
When the supply voltage reaches the maximum voltage indicated in register
shunt transistor is activated.
As a recommendation, set the DC bus voltage limit above the maximum expected DC supply v 5%.
When using batteries set the DC bus voltage limit below the maximum charge voltage.
This will allow
regenerative braking and protect the battery against overcharging.
