WARNING
¾

For compound braking, regenerative braking is superimposed on the DC

braking (braking along a ramp). This means that components of the kinetic
energy of the motor and driven load are converted into thermal energy in the
motor. If this power loss is too high or if the braking operation takes too long,
then this can cause the drive to overheat !

¾

When using compound braking it must be expected that there is a higher level

of noise above the compound braking switch-in threshold.

NOTE
¾

Only active in conjunction with V/f control.

¾

Compound braking is de-activated, if

- flying restart is active,
- DC braking is active, and
- Vector control (SLVC, VC) is selected.

¾

The compound switch-in threshold V

runs-up - i.e. after the line supply voltage has been connected

For several drive applications, in certain operating states, the motor can
regenerate. Examples of these applications include:
¾

Cranes

¾

Traction drives

¾

Conveyor belts which transport loads downwards

When the motor is in the regenerative mode, the energy from the motor is fed back
into the DC link of the drive converter via the inverter. This means that the DC link
voltage increases and when the maximum threshold is reached, the drive inverter
is shutdown (tripped) with fault F0002. This shutdown (trip) can be avoided by
using dynamic braking. Contrary to DC and compound braking, this technique
requires that an external braking resistor is installed.
