406 Appendix: Resistor braking
Equations for selecting the resistor:
where
R = selected brake resistor value (ohm)
P
Rmax
= maximum power during the braking cycle (W)
P
Rave
= average power during the braking cycle (W)
E
Rpulse
= energy conducted into the resistor during a single braking pulse (J)
t
on
= length of the braking pulse (s)
T = length of the braking cycle (s).
Resistor types shown in the table are pre-dimensioned resistors using the maximum
braking power with cyclic braking shown in the table. Resistors are available from
ABB. Information is subject to change without further notice.
