7.1.4 DC Braking
Resistor brake is useful from max. speed down to a certain
frequency. Below this frequency DC braking is to be
applied as required. The most efficient way of doing this is
to use a combination of dynamic and DC braking. See
. The parameters can be found in

Synchronous speed
n0 = f × 60
p
[1/min]
f = frequency supplied to motor
p = no. of pole pairs
n
n
= speed of the rotor
DC-brake cut in frequency =
