Connection of a brake unit FR-BU2

When connecting a brake unit to improve the brake capability at deceleration, make connection as
shown below.

power supply
Fig. 3-30: Connection with the brake unit FR-BU2
If the control contacts are only specified for 230V control power you must install a transformer
when using a 400V power supply.
Connect the inverter terminals (P/+, N/−) and brake unit terminals so that their terminal signals
match with each other. (Incorrect connection will damage the inverter.)
The wiring distance between the inverter, brake unit and resistor unit should be within 5m. If
twisted wires are used, the distance should be within 10m.
If the transistors in the brake unit should become faulty, the resistor can be unusually hot, causing
a fire. Therefore, install a magnetic contactor on the inverters input side to configure a circuit so
that a current is shut off in case of fault.
Refer to FR-BU2 manual for connection method of discharging resistor.
