  • Page 11: Chapter 2 - Overview

    Chapter 2 – Overview Resistor Braking The deceleration time of an AC drive can be decreased by using resistor braking. For this, the frequency converter has to be equipped with a braking chopper and a braking resistor. The standard braking choppers and braking resistors available for the ACS 600 units are given in Table 2-1.
  • Page 12: Accessories

    Chapter 2 – Overview There is an enable input and a relay output on the chopper control board. The input can be connected to a temperature sensitive switch mounted in the resistor assembly to protect the resistor against overtemperature (see Chapter 4 – Electrical Installation for more information).
  • Page 13: Braking Resistors

    Chapter 2 – Overview Braking Resistors Standard resistors are available for each ACS 600 / NBRA-6xx combination. These resistors are specified in Table 2-1, and their dimensions given in Appendix A. (Some combinations require the use of two parallel-connected resistors.) Other resistors with a resistance not below the minimum allowed resistance value (R) may also be used.

  • Page 31: Relay Output

    Chapter 4 – Electrical Installation Relay Output The relay output indicates chopper faults. The changeover switch opens when a failure is detected or the chopper is unpowered. WARNING! In a chopper failure, always switch off the power supply to the ACS 600. This is the only way to guarantee safe operation in case of a chopper failure since the chopper is unable to disconnect the resistor from the intermediate circuit.
  • Page 32: Enable Input

    Chapter 4 – Electrical Installation Enable Input By default, the Enable input terminal block X2 (X1 on NBRA-658/659/ 669) is short-circuited with a jumper connection, and the enable signal is present all the time. The signal can be given externally by connecting a break contact to the terminal block as shown in Figure 4-1.
