RIVE PTIONS In 1975, Bonitron began working with AC inverter drive specialists at synthetic fiber plants to develop speed control systems that could be interfaced with their plant process computers. Ever since, Bonitron has developed AC drive options that solve application issues associated with modern AC variable frequency drives and aid in reducing drive faults.
Features were changed in Rev 02e. Minor format changes were added in Rev 02f. Voltage rating U was added in Rev 02g. Updates to indicators were added in Rev 02h. The manual template was updated in Rev 02i. Figure 1-1: Model M3675T...
2.1. ELATED RODUCTS Like the M3675T, the Bonitron M3575T is a Standard Duty Braking Transistor that is rated for applications that require higher current. The M3575T is rated up to 600A peak at 20% duty cycle. For applications that require high duty cycles, the Bonitron M3452 Heavy Duty Braking Transistor is rated for continuous duty.
460 VAC DC C URRENT ATING The DC Current Rating indicates the maximum DC current level safely handled by the braking unit. All M3675T modules are rated for a maximum of 10 Amps DC at 20% duty cycle. 2.3. ENERAL PECIFICATIONS...

WARNING! Proper installation of the Model M3675T Braking Transistor should be accomplished following the steps outlined below. Be sure to refer to your AC drive’s instruction manual as you perform these steps. Please direct all installation inquiries that may arise during the installation and startup of this braking product to your supplier or system integrator.
Engineering Section of this manual MUST be followed when selecting a dynamic load for use with the M3675T unit. Figure 3-1 shows a typical interconnection of the M3675T with the M3575R Resistor Module. For interconnection with other load modules, refer to the documentation supplied with them.
4.1. UNCTIONAL ESCRIPTION The M3675T Module controls the bus voltage of a variable frequency drive by transferring energy to a resistor. When the drive’s DC bus voltage exceeds a fixed setpoint, the Braking Transistor’s control electronics turns on an IGBT transistor connecting a dynamic load across the DC bus.
