The brake resistor is thermally stressed due to converted braking power and may be
thermally destroyed as a consequence of excessive braking power.
To avoid thermal overload of the brake resistor:
ƒ set additional parameters in the »Engineer«
or
ƒ implement external wiring using a temperature contact on the brake resistor (e.g.
interrupted supply and activation of the mechanical brakes).
To protect the brake resistor:
ƒ use the monitoring of the I 2 xt utilisation of the controller which is proportional to
the converted braking power.
