In the event of a power failure, the Line Module can no longer supply the DC-link voltage,
particularly if the Motor Modules in the DC-link line-up are drawing active power. To maintain
the DC-link voltage in the event of a power failure (e.g. for a controlled emergency
retraction), the V
When the set voltage threshold of p1248 is fallen below, these drives are switched into the
generator mode so that they can buffer the DC-link voltage with their kinetic energy. The
threshold should be set considerably higher than the shutdown threshold of the Motor
Modules (recommendation: 50 V below the DC-link voltage). When the line supply returns,
the V
the line supply does not return, then the DC-link voltage collapses as soon as the kinetic
energy of the drives is exhausted with an active V
Note
If a voltage recovery is expected, you must make sure that the drive line-up is not
disconnected from the line supply. It could become disconnected, for example, if the line
contactor drops out. The line contactor must be supplied, e.g. from an uninterruptible power
supply (UPS).

than the torque limit offset (p1532). The motor does not go into the generator mode and
does not draw any active power from the DC link.
