Absorbing Regenerative Energy with an External Regeneration
Resistor
If the regenerative energy exceeds the absorption capacity of the Servo Drive, connect an External
Regeneration Resistor.
Connect the External Regeneration Resistor between B1 and B2 terminals on the Servo Drive.
Double-check the terminal names when connecting the resistor because the Servo Drive may be
damaged by burning if connected to the wrong terminals.
The External Regeneration Resistor will heat up to approximately 120C. Do not place it near
equipment and wiring that is easily affected by heat. Attach radiator plates suitable for the heat
radiation conditions.
