11.2003 Product Description

2 Product Description
When a motor brakes, it feeds electrical energy back to the SIMOVERT
MASTERDRIVES, causing the DC link voltage to rise. The braking unit
is connected in parallel to the DC link and limits the DC link voltage
increase to an acceptable level. The braking unit converts the
generated braking energy to heat in an external braking resistor. The
appropriate resistor must always be connected to the braking unit.
Braking energy cannot be converted without one.
The braking unit is connected to the converter or inverter via the DC
link terminals. When the DC bus voltage reaches a pre-defined limit,
the braking unit automatically turns on and prevents the DC bus voltage
from continuing to increase.
The braking unit operates autonomously of the converter or inverter.
The braking unit electronics are supplied from the DC link voltage.
Braking units can be connected in parallel to enhance braking
performance.

11.2003 Mounting, Connecting-Up

3 Mounting, Connecting-Up
Mounting ♦ Using M6 screws or adapter plate on G-type mounting rail (adapter
plate is not included in scope of supply).

Connecting-up ♦ Braking unit:

Connect the terminals C/L+ and D/L- (top side of the braking unit) to
the terminals C/L+ and D/L- of the drive (see Fig. 3-2).
• Connecting cables to DC link must be twisted-pair and max. 3 m
long
• In the case of several parallel inverters with a common DC link,
the braking unit must be connected to the inverter with the
highest output.
♦ Connecting braking units in parallel:
• To increase the braking power, braking units can be connected
in parallel. The switch for the response threshold (see Fig. 6-2)
must be set identically on all units connected in parallel. The total
continuous braking power CBP is calculated from the total
continuous braking power of the individual units. For a definition
of braking power, see Fig. 4-1.
• Each braking unit must have its own twisted-pair feeder cable,
max. 3 m in length, to the DC link. Feeder cables of the same
length must be used for all paralleled braking units to ensure a
symmetrical distribution of current.
• Each braking unit requires its own braking resistor
♦ External braking resistors (selection list see chapter "Braking
Resistors")
• Connect braking resistor to terminals G and H.
• Length of the connecting cables between braking unit and
external braking resistor < 15 m.

WARNING Mis-connecting or shorting the DC bus terminals will destroy the drive
and the braking unit, respectively.
The exit air from the braking units can reach a temperature of > 80 °C.
The housing surface can reach a temperature of > 65 °C.

Table 3-1 Power connections on braking unit

WARNING The braking unit may be connected to the DC bus bar with or without
using fuses. The connections between the drive converter or inverter
and braking unit must be short-circuit- and ground-fault proof.
The dielectric strength rating of the cable must be selected according to
the line voltage.

Fuses ♦ Fuses are recommended for multi-motor systems with a common

DC link (incoming power >> braking unit rating).
♦ High voltage fuses (1000 V) must be used in the positive and
negative branches (fuses type see Table 7-1).
♦ Fuses are not required for single-motor drives (one braking unit on
converter).

NOTE These fuses only provide protection in "critical situations". They do not
protect the braking unit or external braking resistor.

11.2003 Braking Resistors

4 Braking Resistors
The braking resistors listed in chapter 7 "Technical Data" match the
braking units and allow full utilization of the braking capability.

WARNINGS When braking resistors and braking units are combined, it must be
guaranteed that the resistance of a resistor is not less than the
minimum allowed resistance, otherwise the braking unit may be
destroyed!
Higher values of the resistors are allowed. The higher the resistance
value, however, the lower the braking power. The braking power varies
indirectly in proportion to the resistance value (double the resistance
value → half the braking power).
During operation the surface of the braking resistors may have
temperatures of several hundred degrees C. Therefore cooling air must
not contain flammable or explosive items or gases.
If a resistor is wall-mounted, the wall must not be flammable.

WARNINGS The external braking resistor must be mounted separately and

connected to the plant supply.
The braking resistors recommended by Siemens have a thermocontact
(NC contact) which trips when the resistor overloads. In this event, the
converter must be disconnected from the supply via a main contactor.
If the main contactor is controlled via the appropriate output of the
converter or inverter (X9), the thermocontact can be connected to a
binary input that is parameterized as a fault input (see Fig. 3-6).

DANGER Do not remove the front cover when voltage is applied to the
braking unit!
The control circuit is directly connected to the DC bus voltage!
The unit must therefore be disconnected from the supply before the
setting of the response threshold switch is adjusted.
The units have hazardous voltage levels up to 5 min. after the unit has
been powered-down due to the DC link capacitors.

How to change setting of switch S1 for

the response threshold:
♦ Remove the two screws at the
bottom of the front plate, pull the
plate out forwards at the bottom
and push to one side (Fig. 6-1). Do
not remove the PE conductor
connection to the front cover!
♦ Use a suitable tool, e.g. small
screwdriver, to adjust the setting of
switch S1 (Fig. 6-2).
♦ Hook the top of the front panel into

Switch S1 for response threshold:

It is possible to switch over the response threshold on the braking units.
This can be useful for units operating on a supply system with 380 V /
400 V, 500 V or 660 V. In this case, the DC link voltage increases only
slightly in braking mode, thus reducing the voltage load on the motor
insulation.

NOTE For 1LA1/5/6/8/ type SIEMENS motors the voltage limit does not need
to be changed.
If the voltage limit switch S1 is set to the lower limit, the braking power
is reduced (P~V2).

Set parameters on converter: (see section headed "Parameterization"

in operating manual for SIMOVERT MASTERDRIVES)
♦ Deactivate the Udmax controller in the converter or inverter. To do
this on units with Vector Control functionality, set parameter P515 to
"0". Units with Motion Control functionality do not possess this
controller and do not therefore require resetting.
♦ Parameterize the binary inputs and outputs for controlling the
braking unit (BICO technology). The specified setting values are
based on the assumption that the connections between the
MASTERDRIVES and braking unit have been made according to
Fig. 3-6 or Fig. 3-7. If different terminals have been used, the setting
values must be modified accordingly.
Assuming that the MASTERDRIVES parameters are set to their
defaults (factory state), the required parameter settings are as follows:
Example according to Fig. 3-6
P575 Index 001 = 18

Example according to Fig. 3-7

6.1 Capacitor forming

The DC link capacitors must be re-formed if the converter has been
non-operational for more than one year. If the converter was started-up
within one year after having been shipped (serial number on the rating
plate), it is not necessary to re-form the DC link capacitors.
Forming is realized by switching-in a rectifier and resistor, which is
connected to the DC link. The converter supply must be
disconnected (circuit: refer to Fig. 6-4)!
The forming period required depends on how long the braking unit has
been non-operational (see Fig. 6-5).
