Value/Range Description
— Brake chopper
0 Brake-chopper deactivated
1 Automatic activation in operation (RUN)
2 Automatic activation in operation (RUN) and upon stop (STOP)
— Brake chopper, DC bus switching threshold
0–870V This function is only active with the three-phase frequency
inverters MMX34...3D3_ (3.3A) to MMX34...014_ (14A)
The switching threshold for the brake transistor should always
be above the maximum DC link voltage
For example, allowing for the maximum permissible input
voltage peak of 10%:
U LN = 400 Vac
U LN +10% = 400 Vac = 440 Vac
U DC = 1.35 x U LNmax = 1.35 x 440V = 594 Vdc (maximum
permissible DC link voltage in motor operation)
Allowing for an energy absorption from the DC link of around
30% during braking, the on threshold here for the braking
transistor should be set to around 780V
Note: Lower values for the on threshold will switch on the
braking resistor earlier so that it is subject to a greater load
The DC link voltage is shown at M1.8. In practice, the value of
the DC link voltage is around 565V at U LN = 400V
