Peak braking power

The permitted peak braking power is specified by the resistor and the DC link voltage.

The peak braking power required by the application results from the maximum of individual regenerative parts within a cycle.

The peak braking power required by the application must be lower than the permitted peak braking power of the braking resistor.

The permitted peak braking power of the braking resistor is calculated as follows:

Pmax

Maximum peak braking power that the braking resistor can absorb

VDCL_max

Maximum DC link voltage for MOVIDRIVE® modular: DC 970 V

R

Braking resistance value

The absorbable peak braking power is given in the table for the respective braking resistor.
