Absorption of the arising braking energy!
The AX8000 multi-axis servo system offers the option of destroying arising braking energy
through internal brake resistors. If the built-in resistors do not suffice, an external brake re-

Intended use

The brake resistors from the AX2090-BW80-xxxx series are intended exclusively for use directly on a supply
module from the AX86xx series (terminal X01). They are installed together with the AX86xx supply module
on a multi-axis servo system as components in control cabinets of electrical systems and machinery and
may only be operated there.
Nature and source of the danger
Basically, electronic devices are not fail-safe. The machine manufacturer is responsible for
ensuring that the connected motors and the machine are brought into a safe state in the
WARNING
event of a fault in the drive system.
Improper use
The AX2090-BW80-xxxx brake resistors are not suitable for use in the following areas:
• in ATEX zones without a suitable housing
• in areas with aggressive environments (e.g. aggressive gases or chemicals)
The relevant standards and directives for EMC interference emissions must be complied with in residential
areas. The brake resistors may only be installed in housings and control cabinets with appropriate shielding
attenuation.

Article no. Description
AX2090-BW80 The external brake resistors of the AX2090-BW80
series are able to convert the dynamic energy
generated during braking of a servomotor into heat. All
brake resistors of the AX2090-BW80 series are cUL
and CSA approved.
