Resistor.
5.2.2
Selecting the Dynamic Brake Resistor
This section describes the selection of the Dynamic Brake Resistor.
To select the Dynamic Brake Resistor, you must calculate the resistance and energy consump-
tion for the specifications of the machine.
Resistance
Based on the characteristic graphs of the Servomotor that will be used, you must determine
the resistance that can satisfy the limit of instantaneous maximum brake torque.

WARNING
Do not use dynamic braking for any application other than an emergency stop.
There is a risk of failure due to rapid deterioration of elements in the SERVOPACK and the risk
of unexpected operation, machine damage, burning, or injury.
Use a Dynamic Brake Resistor matched to the specifications of the machine.
There is a risk of unexpected operation, machine damage, burning, or injury.
When using dynamic braking, implement suitable safety measures on the machine.
There is a risk of unexpected operation, machine damage, burning, or injury.
In situation where the motor will be rotated from the machine after it has been stopped, set
the SERVOPACK to coast to stop instead of using dynamic braking.
There is a risk of burning in the equipment, damage to the machine, or injury.
CAUTION
Do not select a resistor with resistance less than the minimum allowable resistance.
There is a risk of burning in the SERVOPACK or Servomotor, damage to the machine, or injury.
