Using an RFI filter
S
5
For compliance with the emission
TEP
standards such as EN 50081-1 or EN 50081-2, use
the recommended RFI filter as shown in
Table 2–8. Use one RFI filter for each Drive.
(Standards that are met are specified in
Appendix C Data)
Make a note of this step number and the
following for each filter to be used:
•
Size code or part number
•
Maximum power dissipation figure

When the motor cable is to exceed 50m (165 feet),
use RFI filter size B (4200–0027).

Using a braking resistor
Braking occurs when the Drive is decelerating the
motor, or is preventing the motor from gaining
speed due to mechanical influences. During braking,
energy is returned to the Drive by the motor.
When the motor is being braked by the Drive, the
maximum regenerated power that the Drive can
absorb is equal to the power dissipation (losses) of
the Drive.
When the regenerated power is likely to exceed
these losses, a braking resistor must be connected.
By default, the Drive brakes the motor under
PI control which extends the deceleration time as
necessary in order to keep the
voltage. The method of braking can be changed; if
required, refer to Appendix D Menu 0 Parameters in
the User Guide.
Note
When a braking resistor is used, the Drive
should be operated in FASt ramp mode. If
this is not done, instability may arise. See
Braking resistor in Chapter 2 of the User
Guide.

braking resistors so that
damage cannot result.
Use cable having insulation
capable of withstanding high
temperatures.
Overload protection
It is essential that an overload

incorporated in the braking
resistor circuit; this is
