Recommendations for configuring the Brake Logic control
parameters:
• Brake release frequency (brL):
Set the brake release frequency to the value of the nominal motor
slip (g) multiplied by the nominal frequency (FS) in Hz.
brL = g x FS
g = nominal motor slip
FS = nominal motor frequency (indicated on the motor nameplate)
Example Calculation:
nominal slip (g) = (Ns – Nr) / Ns
Ns = synchronous speed in rpm
Nr = nominal motor speed at nominal torque in rpm. Use the
speed indicated on the motor nameplate.
For a 50 Hz supply: Ns = 3000 rpm for a motor with two poles,
1500 rpm for a motor with four poles, 1000 rpm for a motor
with six poles, and 750 rpm for a motor with eight poles.
For a 60 Hz supply: Ns = 3600 rpm for a motor with two poles,
1800 rpm for a motor with four poles, 1200 rpm for a motor
with six poles, and 900 rpm for a motor with eight poles.
Example calculation: for a motor with four poles, a nameplate
nominal speed of 1430 rpm, and a 50 Hz supply
g = (1500 – 1430) / 1500 = 0.0466
Brake release frequency (brL) = 0.0466 x 50 = 2.4 Hz
• Brake release current (Ibr):
Adjust the brake release current to the motor nameplate nominal
current.
NOTE: The values indicated (release current and release
frequency) correspond to theoretical values. If during testing, the
torque is insufficient using these theoretical values, retain the
brake release current at the nominal motor current and lower the
brake release frequency (up to 2/3 of the nominal slip). If the
result is still not satisfactory, return to the theoretical values and
then increase the brake release current (the maximum value is
imposed by the drive controller) and increase the brake release
frequency gradually.
