Temperature model
[5-30] Signal flow for monitoring the brake resistor
The monitoring function calculates the braking current I
Br
from the current DC-bus voltage
U
DC_act
and the brake resistance parameterised in C00129:
During the calculation, the thermal utilisation of the brake resistor on the basis of the
following parameters is taken into consideration:
– Resistance value (C00129
)
– Continuous power (C00130
)
– Thermal capacity (C00131
)
In the Lenze setting these parameters are preset with the corresponding power-
adapted Lenze brake resistor.
C00133
indicates the calculated utilisation of the brake resistor in [%].
– A utilisation of 100 % corresponds to the continuous power of the brake resistor
depending on the maximally permissible temperature limit.

Note!
The monitoring function can also be triggered due to a value entered in C00129
although a brake resistor is not even connected.
