Precautions
WARNING
Use an external dynamic brake resistor that matches the specifications for the relevant
equipment or machine. Always evaluate the dynamic brake operation on the actual equip-
ment or machine to confirm that there are no problems with the coasting distance or dura-
bility of the dynamic brake resistor. If necessary, select another dynamic brake resistor and
install any necessary safety devices in the machine.
There is a risk of unexpected operation, machine damage, burning, or injury when an emer-
gency stop is performed.
The dynamic brake resistor cannot be used if the motor is turned by the machine after stop-
ping due to a power interruption or error. Coast the motor to a stop instead.
Failure to do so may cause the dynamic brake resistor or SERVOPACK to burn or may cause
injury.
CAUTION
Do not use the dynamic brake for any application other than an emergency stop.
There is a risk of failure due to rapid deterioration of elements in the SERVOPACK and the risk
of unexpected operation, machine damage, burning, or injury.
