Only appropriately trained persons who are familiar with and  
understand the contents of this manual and all other pertinent  
product documentation and who have received safety training to  
recognize and avoid hazards involved are authorized to work on  
and with this drive system. Installation, adjustment, repair and  
maintenance must be performed by qualified personnel.  
The system integrator is responsible for compliance with all local  
and national electrical code requirements as well as all other  
applicable regulations with respect to grounding of all equipment.  
Many components of the product, including the printed circuit  
board, operate with mains voltage. Do not touch. Use only electri-  
cally insulated tools.  
Do not touch unshielded components or terminals with voltage  
present.  
The motor itself generates voltage when the motor shaft is rota-  
ted. Block the motor shaft to prevent rotation prior to performing  
any type of work on the drive system.  
AC voltage can couple voltage to unused conductors in the motor  
cable. Insulate both ends of unused conductors of the motor  
cable.  
Do not short across the DC bus terminals or the DC bus capaci-  
tors.  
Before performing work on the drive system:  
-
Disconnect all power, including external control power that  
may be present.  
-
-
-
Place a "Do Not Turn On" label on all power switches.  
Lock all power switches in the open position.  
Wait 15 minutes to allow the DC bus capacitors to discharge.  
Measure the voltage on the DC bus as per chapter "DC bus  
voltage measurement" and verify the voltage is <42 Vdc. The  
DC bus LED is not an indicator of the absence of DC bus volt-  
age.  
Install and close all covers before applying voltage.  
Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or seri-  
ous injury.

WARNING  
LOSS OF CONTROL  
The designer of any control scheme must consider the potential  
failure modes of control paths and, for certain critical functions,  
provide a means to achieve a safe state during and after a path  
failure. Examples of critical control functions are emergency stop,  
overtravel stop, power outage and restart.  
Separate or redundant control paths must be provided for critical  
functions.  
System control paths may include communication links. Consider-  
ation must be given to the implication of unanticipated transmis-  
sion delays or failures of the link.  
Observe all accident prevention regulations and local safety  
guidelines. 1)  
Each implementation of the product must be individually and thor-  
oughly tested for proper operation before being placed into serv-  
ice.  
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious  
injury, or equipment damage.  
1) For USA: Additional information, refer to NEMA ICS 1.1 (latest edition), “Safety  
Guidelines for the Application, Installation, and Maintenance of Solid State Control”

1 Introduction

Introduction  
A drive system requires energy for acceleration or constant movement  
that must be supplied to the system.  
During deceleration, a motor acts as a generator. A considerable por-  
tion of the kinetic energy is re-generated as electrical energy.  
Since electrical energy can only be stored to a limited extent in a sin-  
gle drive, a drive uses a braking resistor to transform the excess  
energy into thermal energy.  
Use of electrical energy If an application operates with multiple drive systems, it may be useful  
to employ a common DC bus. By sharing a common DC bus, the  
energy regenerated by one drive can be supplied to another drive.  
Common DC bus Whether or not a common DC bus makes sense depends on the  
acceleration and deceleration cycles of the drive systems.  
A common DC bus is useful, for example, if one drive systems accel-  
erates while another drive system decelerates.  
If the drive systems accelerate and decelerate at the same time, a  
common DC bus does not make sense.

3.1  
Energy balance  
To be able to estimate the effect of an interconnection of drives via a  
common DC bus, create an energy balance of the individual drives  
over a movement cycle. A movement cycle typically consists of the fol-  
lowing phases: acceleration, continuous movement and deceleration.  
The energy generated during deceleration can be used by other  
drives connected via a common DC bus. Excess energy can be  
absorbed by the braking resistors.  
The assessment of the energy balances of the individual drives per  
movement cycle and of the cyclic sequence of the movement cycles  
allows you to draw a conclusion regarding the efficiency of a common  
DC bus.  
3.1.1  
Energy balance basics  
The energy balance is influenced by the following factors:  
Energy absorption of capacitors Evar in the drive  
Electrical losses of the drive system Eel  
Mechanical losses of the facility and the drive system Emech  
Braking resistor EB  
Energy absorption of the capaci- The higher the mains voltage, the lower the energy absorption of the  
tors Evar capacitors Evar. In your calculation, use the values for the highest  
mains voltage that is used in your application, see chapter  
The energy absorption of the capacitors Evar is the square difference  
between the voltage prior to the start of the deceleration and the  
switch-on voltage of the braking resistor.  
Electrical losses Eel The electrical losses Eel of the drive system can be estimated on the  
basis of the peak power of the drive. The maximum power dissipation  
is approximately 10% of the peak power at a typical efficiency of 90%.  
If the current during deceleration is lower, the power dissipation is  
reduced accordingly.  
Mechanical losses Emech The mechanical losses result from friction during operation of the sys-  
tem. Mechanical losses are negligible if the time required by the sys-  
tem to coast to a stop without a driving force is considerably longer  
than the time required to decelerate the system. The mechanical los-  
ses can be calculated from the load torque and the velocity from  
which the motor is to stop.  
Braking resistor EB Two characteristic values determine the energy absorption of a brak-  
ing resistor:  
The continuous power PPR is the amount of energy that can be  
continuously absorbed without overloading the braking resistor.  
The maximum energy ECR limits the maximum short-term power  
that can be absorbed.

This profile with velocity (v) and motor current (I) is also used for rating

Calculation of the energy at constant deceleration:  
The total inertia (Jt) must be known.

In the next calculation steps, only consider those segments Di, whose  
energy Ei exceeds the energy absorption of the device (see chapter  
"2.2 DC bus data"). These excess energies EDi must be diverted by  
means of the braking resistor (internal or external).  
EDi is calculated using the following formula:  
EDi = Ei - Evar (in Ws)

Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)  
If drives are to be operated via a common DC bus, the following  
aspects must be considered in terms of EMC:  
Keep DC bus cables as short as possible.  
Shielded DC bus cables must be used at a cable length of > 0.2 m.  
In the case of shielded DC bus cables, connect the cable shield to  
the shield connection (large surface area contact).  
DC bus connection  
The DC bus is connected by means of a plug and socket connection  
or screw terminals.

Braking resistors  
Excess energy in the common DC bus must be absorbed by the brak-  
ing resistors. Depending on the application, one or more braking resis-  
tors can be connected. Consider the internal braking resistors of  
LXM32 drives in your calculations.  
If drives with a different nominal power are connected via the DC bus,  
you must connect braking resistors to the drive with the highest nomi-  
nal power. See the manual of the respective product for more informa-  
tion.  
3.5.1  
Rating the braking resistor  
An insufficiently rated braking resistor can cause overvoltage on the  
DC bus. Overvoltage on the DC bus causes the power stage to be  
disabled. The motor is no longer actively decelerated.  
WARNING  
MOTOR WITHOUT BRAKING EFFECT  
Verify that the braking resistor has a sufficient rating.  
Verify that the parameter settings for the braking resistor are cor-  
rect.  
Verify that the I2t value for temperature monitoring does not  
exceed 100% by performing a test run under maximum load con-  
ditions.  
Verify that the calculations and the test run take into account the  
fact that the DC bus capacitors can absorb less braking energy at  
higher mains voltages.  
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious  
injury, or equipment damage.  
The temperature of the braking resistor may exceed 250 °C (482 °F)  
during operation.  
WARNING  
HOT SURFACES  
Ensure that any contact with a hot braking resistor is avoided.  
Do not allow flammable or heat-sensitive parts in the immediate  
vicinity of the braking resistor.  
Verify that the heat dissipation is sufficient by performing a test  
run under maximum load conditions.  
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious  
injury, or equipment damage.  
Braking resistors are required for dynamic applications. During decel-  
eration, the kinetic energy is transformed into electrical energy in the  
motor. The electrical energy increases the DC bus voltage. The brak-  
ing resistor is activated when the defined threshold value is exceeded.  
The braking resistor transforms electrical energy into heat. If highly  
dynamic deceleration is required, the braking resistor must be well  
adapted to the system.

Commissioning chapter  
Internal braking resistor A braking resistor to absorb braking energy is integrated in LXM32  
drives. The device is shipped with the internal braking resistor active.  
If the braking energy of all drives sharing a common DC bus is greater  
than the energy the internal braking resistors can absorb, you must  
use an external braking resistor. Consider the most extreme case of  
your application in calculating the braking energy.  
Example: In the case of an EMERGENCY STOP, all drives decelerate  
simultaneously; the braking resistors must be able to absorb the entire  
braking energy.  
External braking resistor An external braking resistor is required in applications in which the  
braking energy is greater than the energy that can be absorbed by the  
drives sharing a common DC bus. Consider the most extreme case of  
your application in calculating the braking energy.  
Example: In the case of an EMERGENCY STOP, all drives decelerate  
simultaneously; the braking resistors must be able to absorb the entire  
braking energy.  
LXM32: Monitoring LXM32 drives monitor the load on the connected braking resistor. The  
load on the braking resistor can be read out.  
The connection of the external braking resistor is short-circuit protec-  
ted. A ground fault of the braking resistor is not detected.  
Selection of the external braking The rating of an external braking resistor depends on the required  
resistor peak power and continuous power with which the braking resistor can  
be operated.  
The resistance R is derived from the required peak power and the DC  
bus voltage.

R = Resistance value in Ω

Pmax = Required peak power in W  
If 2 or more braking resistors are connected to one drive, note the fol-  
lowing criteria:  
The braking resistors must be connected in parallel or in series so  
the required resistance is reached. Only connect resistors with  
identical resistance in parallel in order to evenly distribute the load  
to all braking resistors.  
The total resistance of all external braking resistors connected to  
one drive must not fall below a lower limit.  
The continuous power of the network of connected braking resis-  
tors must be calculated. The result must be greater than or equal  
to the actually required continuous power.

Use only resistors that are specified as braking resistors. See chapter  
Connection of braking resistor Braking resistors with degree of protection IP65 may be installed out-  
side the control cabinet in an appropriate environment in order to  
decrease the temperature in the control cabinet.  
The external braking resistors listed in the Accessories chapter are  
shipped with an information sheet that provides details on installation.  
Further procedure:  
Connect the braking resistors to the drive.  
LXM32: Check the parameter RESint_ext during commissioning.  
This parameter allows you to switch between internal and external  
braking resistor.  
LXM32: If you have connected an external braking resistor to an  
LXM32 drive, you must set the parameters for the external braking  
resistor during commissioning.  
During commissioning, test the braking resistors under realistic  
conditions, see page 54.  
Wire ferrules: If you use wire ferrules, use only wire ferrules with col-  
lars for these terminals.  
3.5.2  
Rating information  
To rate the braking resistor, calculate the proportion contributing to  
absorbing braking energy.  
An external braking resistor is required if the kinetic energy that must  
be absorbed exceeds the total of the internal proportions, including  
the internal braking resistor.  
The energy Evar is the square difference between the voltage before  
the deceleration process and the response threshold.  
The voltage prior to the deceleration process depends on the mains  
voltage. The energy absorption by the DC bus capacitors is lowest  
when the mains voltage is highest. In the calculation, use the values  
for the highest mains voltage.  
Energy absorption braking resistor Two characteristic values determine the energy absorption of the  
braking resistor:  
The continuous power PPR is the amount of energy that can be  
continuously absorbed without overloading the braking resistor.  
The maximum energy ECR limits the maximum short-term power  
that can be absorbed.  
If the continuous power was exceeded for a specific time, the braking  
resistor must remain without load for a corresponding period.  
The characteristic values PPR and ECR of the internal braking resistor  
can be found in chapter "2 Technical Data".

Initial speed of rotation: n = 4000 min-1

Load inertia: JL = 6 kgcm2  
Calculation of the energy to be absorbed:  
EB = 1/2 * J * (2*π*n * 1/60)2  
to 88 Ws  
Electrical and mechanical losses are ignored.  
In this example, the DC bus capacitors absorb 23 Ws (the value  
depends on the device type, see chapter "2 Technical Data").  
The internal braking resistor must absorb the remaining 65 Ws. It can  
absorb a pulse of 80 Ws. If the load is decelerated once, the internal  
braking resistor is sufficient.  
If the deceleration process is repeated cyclically, the continuous out-  
put must be considered. If the cycle time is longer than the ratio of the  
energy to be absorbed EB and the continuous power PPR, the internal  
braking resistor is sufficient. If the system decelerates more frequently,  
the internal braking resistor is not sufficient.  
In the example, the ratio EB/PPR is 1.3 s. If the cycle time is shorter, an  
external braking resistor is required.  
Selecting an external braking The selection is made in two steps:  
resistor  
The maximum energy during deceleration must be less than the  
peak energy that the internal braking resistor can absorb:  
(EDi)<(ECr). In addition, the continuous power of the internal braking  
resistor must not be exceeded: (PC)<(PPr). If these conditions are  
met, then the internal braking resistor is sufficient.  
If one of the conditions is not met, you must use an external brak-  
ing resistor. The braking resistor must be rated in such a way that  
the conditions are met. The resistance of the braking resistor must  
be between the specified minimum and maximum values, since  
otherwise the load can no longer be decelerated or the product  
might be destroyed.

Mains reactor  
A mains reactor is required if at least one of the following criteria is  
met:  
The output power of the drive is to be increased.  
The short-circuit current rating (SCCR) of the supplying mains is  
greater than specified for the drives.  
Current harmonics are to be reduced.  
If one drive requires a mains reactor, then all drives connected via the  
DC bus must be equipped with mains reactors.  
The mains reactor for several drives with a common AC fuse must be  
rated in such a way that the nominal current of the mains reactor is  
greater than the total of the input current of the drives.  
The fuse rating of the fuse upstream of the mains reactor must not be  
greater than the nominal current of the mains reactor.

Mains filter  
The emission depends on the length of the motor cables. If the  
required limit value is not reached with the internal mains filter, you  
must use an external mains filter.  
See manual of the respective product for information on mains filters.  
The mains filter for several drives with a common AC fuse must be  
rated in such a way that the nominal current of the external mains filter  
is greater than the total of the input current of the drives.  
The fuse rating of the fuse upstream of the external mains filter must  
not be greater than the nominal current of the external mains filter.  
Mount the external mains filter in such a way that the lines from the  
mains filter to the drives are as short as possible. For EMC reasons,  
route the cables from the mains filter to the drives separately from the  
line to the mains filter.  
External three-phase mains filters do not have a neutral conductor  
connection; they are only approved for three-phase devices.

LXM32: Setting the braking resistor parameters  
An insufficiently rated braking resistor can cause overvoltage on the  
DC bus. Overvoltage on the DC bus causes the power stage to be  
disabled. The motor is no longer actively decelerated.  
WARNING  
MOTOR WITHOUT BRAKING EFFECT  
Verify that the braking resistor has a sufficient rating.  
Verify that the parameter settings for the braking resistor are cor-  
rect.  
Verify that the I2t value for temperature monitoring does not  
exceed 100% by performing a test run under maximum load con-  
ditions.  
Verify that the calculations and the test run take into account the  
fact that the DC bus capacitors can absorb less braking energy at  
higher mains voltages.  
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious  
injury, or equipment damage.  
The temperature of the braking resistor may exceed 250 °C (482 °F)  
during operation.  
WARNING  
HOT SURFACES  
Ensure that any contact with a hot braking resistor is avoided.  
Do not allow flammable or heat-sensitive parts in the immediate  
vicinity of the braking resistor.  
Verify that the heat dissipation is sufficient by performing a test  
run under maximum load conditions.  
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious  
injury, or equipment damage.  
Check the parameter RESint_ext. If you have connected an  
external braking resistor, you must set the parameter to "external".  
If you have connected an external braking resistor, (value of the  
parameter RESint_ext is set to "external"), you must assign the  
appropriate values to the parameters RESext_P, RESext_R and  
RESext_ton. Verify that the selected external braking resistor is  
really connected.  
Test the function of the braking resistor under realistic, worst case  
conditions.  
If the regenerated power becomes greater than the power that can be  
absorbed by the braking resistor, an error message is generated and  
the power stage is disabled.  
See the product manual for a description of the parameters.

Terms and Abbreviations  
See chapter " Standards and terminology" for information on the perti-  
nent standards on which many terms are based. Some terms and  
abbreviations may have specific meanings with regard to the stand-  
ards.  
AC Alternating current  
DC Direct current  
DC bus Circuit that supplies the power stage with energy (direct voltage).  
Drive system System consisting of controller, drive and motor.  
EMC Electromagnetic compatibility  
Error Discrepancy between a detected (computed, measured or signaled)  
value or condition and the specified or theoretically correct value or  
condition.  
Error class Classification of errors into groups. The different error classes allow  
for specific responses to errors, for example by severity.  
Factory setting Factory settings when the product is shipped  
Fault Fault is an operating state. If the monitoring functions detect an error,  
a transition to this operating state is triggered, depending on the error  
class. A "Fault Reset" is required to exit this operating state after the  
cause of the detected error has been removed. Further information  
can be found in the pertinent standards such as IEC 61800-7, ODVA  
Common Industrial Protocol (CIP).  
Fault Reset A function used to restore the drive to an operational state after a  
detected error is cleared by removing the cause of the error so that  
the error is no longer active.  
Parameter Device data and values that can be read and set (to a certain extent)  
by the user.  
PELV Protective Extra Low Voltage, low voltage with isolation. For more  
information: IEC 60364-4-41  
Persistent Indicates whether the value of the parameter remains in the memory  
after the device is switched off.  
Power stage The power stage controls the motor. The power stage generates cur-  
rent for controlling the motor on the basis of the motion signals from  
the controller.  
Quick Stop The Quick Stop function can be used for fast deceleration of a move-  
ment as a response to a detected error or via a command.  
Warning If the term is used outside the context of safety instructions, a warning  
alerts to a potential problem that was detected by a monitoring func-  
tion. A warning does not cause a transition of the operating state.
