Table 3.18 Braking at High Overload Torque Level
Danfoss offers brake resistors with duty cycle of 5%, 10% and 40%. If a 10% duty cycle is applied, the brake resistors are
able to absorb braking energy for 10% of the cycle time. The remaining 90% of the cycle time is used on dissipating excess
heat.
Make sure the resistor is designed to handle the required braking time. The maximum permissible load on the brake resistor
is stated as a peak power at a given intermittent duty cycle. The brake resistance is calculated as shown:
