Step 5 -- Determine the Maximum Generated Braking Torque
Three factors limit the application of Heavy Duty Dynamic Braking.
The first is the brake assembly rating
P
T –– The peak power the brake
assembly can absorb at any instant regardless of the time limit.
The second is the average power that the break assembly can absorb
during one braking duty cycle ––
P
A .
The third is the duty cycle or the number of times the brake assembly can
be operated over a given period of time ––
DC.

P
M must be less than or equal to the
Brake Assembly Rating listed in table 1.
If
P
M exceeds the
P
T value shown, the corresponding drive/brake
configuration will not be able to produce the braking torque required for
your application, and the drive will trip on an overvoltage fault. Increasing
the decel time
