The data manual emphasizes the wiring safety of the brake:
In elevator applications, drives that require rapid braking response, and CFC and SERVO operating modes, the brakes must be simultaneously cut off on both the DC and AC sides.
If the brake rectifier is installed in the control cabinet, the connecting cable between the brake rectifier and the brake must be laid separately from other power cables. If it is necessary to share the same slot, the power cable must be shielded.
The connection of the brake must follow the wiring sequence, as incorrect connections can cause irreversible damage to the brake.
Units with sizes 1, 2, and 2S do not have PE connection points next to the power terminal and motor terminal. In this case, a DC bus should be used to connect the PE terminal next to (X4).
1.8 Braking resistor protection
Braking resistor (BW series) requires overload protection:
BW... - Model: Must be equipped with either an internal temperature switch or an external bimetallic relay (F16).
BW... -003/BW... -005: Adequate protection is already available, and external bimetallic relays can also be used as an additional option.
When the temperature switch or bimetallic relay is triggered, the main contactor K11 must be disconnected and a "0" signal must be given to DI00 (controller disable). It is strictly prohibited to interrupt the resistance circuit.
1.9 Size 7 DC Power Supply Unit
For size 7 units, the technical parameters of the DC power supply unit are:
Rated current: AC 2.4 A
Surge current: AC 30 A (380-500V input)
Attention: When using the backup power mode through the power unit, it is not allowed to connect an external+24V power supply to the X10:9 control terminal, otherwise an error message will be triggered.
