What's the function of this brake unit?
The normal asynchronous motor in power loss, but also because of the inertia and load rotor rotate continuously for a period of time, at this time, due to the current of the rotor motor will still exist, such as the generator, sent to the power supply current. When a short circuit fault occurs, the motor also provides feedback current.
In order to digest this part of the energy, the transducer consumes the energy of the feedback current through the resistor.If the inverter is more advanced, this part of the current can also be sent to the call back network through the controlled rectifier bridge. There's no braking resistance.
When the motor is fast stopping, the motor will feedback the energy to the converter, causing the DC bus voltage to rise or even damage the IGBT. Therefore, it is necessary to use the braking unit to save the part of the energy to protect the converter.Inverter braking a lot, can refer to:
