176 Resistor braking
 Resistor derating
The brake resistors shown in the previous table can achieve their stated power rating
only when mounted on a heat sink. In free air a derating must be applied.
Furthermore, in ambient temperatures greater than 25 °C (77 °F), a temperature
d
erating must be applied.
 Duty cycle
The braking duty cycle is the amount of time taken braking as a proportion of the
overall application cycle time. For example, the following diagram shows a system
which performs a trapezoidal move profile, with braking during part of the
deceleration phase. The braking duty is 0.2 (0.5 second braking / 2.5 second cycle
time):
