What is the purpose of a braking resistor?
A braking resistor, like the Siemens Sinamics model, is used in electric motor drives to dissipate energy generated during the deceleration phase of the motor. It converts excess kinetic energy into heat, which is then safely dissipated, allowing for controlled and rapid stopping of the motor.
Can this braking resistor be used with any voltage?
The braking resistor is designed for a specific range of DC link voltages, typically between 510 to 720 V. It is crucial to ensure that the voltage of your application falls within this range for safe and effective operation.
What are the dimensions and weight of the braking resistor?
The braking resistor has dimensions of 193 mm in width, 410 mm in height, and 240 mm in depth. It weighs approximately 5.6 kg.
What type of protection does the braking resistor offer?
The braking resistor is designed with an IP20 degree of protection, which means it is protected against solid objects larger than 12.5 mm but not against water. It is also classified as UL open type.
How do I connect the braking resistor to my system?
The braking resistor comes with a power connection that should be integrated into your system following the technical specifications and guidelines provided by Siemens for safe and proper installation.
What is the rated power of the braking resistor?
The rated power of the braking resistor is 1.5 kW, with a maximum rated power of 100 kW under specific conditions.
How does the braking resistor handle peak power?
The braking resistor can handle peak power for a duration of 1 second during a braking duty cycle period of 68 seconds, and for 2 seconds during a braking duty cycle period of 460 seconds.
What is the resistance value of the braking resistor?
The resistance value of the braking resistor is 5.7 Ohms, which is an important parameter to consider when integrating it into your motor drive system.
