12.2.2 Calculating the Regenerative Energy
12-8
If the above calculation determines that the amount of regenerative power (Wk) processed by the built-in
resistor is not exceeded, then an external regenerative resistor is not required.
If the amount of regenerative power that can be processed by the built-in resistor is exceeded, then install an
external regenerative resistor for the capacity obtained from the above calculation.
If the energy consumed by load loss (in step 2 above) is unknown, then perform the calculation using E
L
= 0.
When the operation period in regeneration mode is continuous, add the following items to the above calcula-
tion procedure in order to find the required capacity (W) for the regenerative resistor.
• Energy for continuous regeneration mode operation period: E
