Dimensioning Of Brake Resistor - BONFIGLIOLI ACTIVE CUBE 201 Operating Instructions Manual

If the parameter
Trigger Threshold
mains, error message F0705 (chapter 21.1.1"21.1.1") is displayed if the start command is issued to
the frequency inverter.
If the DC-Link Voltage exceeds a certain threshold, error message F0700 will be triggered (see
Chapter 21.1.1 "21.1.1"). The threshold depends on the device series:
ACU 201 device series: 400 V
ACU 401 device series: 800 V
ACU 501 device series: 900 V
ACU 601 device series: 1200 V
The sampling time of the function is 125 µs. The brake chopper remains on for at least 125 µs after
the set trigger threshold was exceeded even if the value drops below the trigger threshold within
this period again.
