2-2* Mechanical Brake
"
For hoisting applications, you must control an
electro-magnetic brake. To control the brake, a
relay output (relay 01 or relay 02) or a programmed
digital output (terminal 27 or 29) is required.
Normally, this output must be closed during
the time when the drive is unable to 'hold' the
motor, e.g. because of too high load.
Select Mechanical Brake Control [32] for applications
with an electro-magnetic brake in par. 5-40 (Array
parameter), par. 5-30, or par. 5-31 (digital output
27 or 29). When selecting Mechanical brake control
[32], the mechanical brake is closed during start
until the output current is above the level selected in
par. 2-20 Release Brake Current. During stop, the
mechanical brake activates when the speed is below
the level selected in par. 2-21 Activate Brake Speed
[RPM]. If the frequency converter enters into an
alarm condition or an over-current or over-voltage
situation, the mechanical brake immediately cuts
in. This is also the case during safe stop.
2-20 Release Brake Current
Range:
0.00 - par. 16-37 A
Function:
Set the motor current for release of the mechanical
brake, if a start condition is present.
2-21 Activate Brake Speed [RPM]
Range:
0 - par. 4-53 RPM
Function:
Set the motor speed for activating the mechanical
brake, if a stop condition is present.

2-22 Activate Brake Speed [Hz]
Range:
0 - Max. speed
Function:
Set the motor frequency for activating the
mechanical brake, if a stop condition is present.
2-23 Activate Brake Delay
Range:
0.0 - 5.0 s
Function:
Sets the brake delay time of the coast after
ramp-down time. The shaft is held at zero speed
with full holding torque. Ensure that the mechanical
brake has locked the load before the motor enters
coast mode. See section Mechanical Brake.
