The equipment described below should be installed only by qualified electrical maintenance personnel
familiar with the construction and operation of the equipment and the hazards involved.
DESCRIPTION
The standard three phase FlexPak Plus and MinPak
Plus controllers allow a drive motor to coast to rest after
the stop switch is pressed. Optionally, a user may install
a Dynamic Braking kit. (Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2)
Dynamic Braking is not a mechanical holding brake. It
will not hold the shaft in place nor will it prevent the moĆ
tor from turning once motion has stopped.

The Dynamic Braking option is actually a resistor conĆ
nected across the motor armature. It al lows a motor to
act as a generator; the rotating mechanical (kinetic) enĆ
ergy is converted into electrical energy that is dissipated
in the form of heat by the Dynamic Braking resistor.
Note that the resistor is sized for infrequent stops.
Thus, users must allow time between stops for heat disĆ
sipation.
When ordering the Kit, it is necessary to specify Model
Numbers according to horsepower and voltage ratings.
