The Vdc_max control extends the motor ramp-down time when braking. The motor then only
feeds so much energy into the converter to cover the losses in the converter. The DC link
voltage remains in the permissible range.
The Vdc_max control is not suitable for applications where the motor is in continuous
regenerative operation, e.g. as is the case for cranes and centrifuges.
