S1 Threshold switch

The response threshold at which the Braking Module is activated and the DC-link voltage
generated during braking are specified in the following table.
Electric shock when the threshold switch switches
Operating the threshold switch when a voltage is present can cause death or serious injury.
• Only use the threshold switch when the Basic Line, Smart Line, Active Line, or Motor

Note
Positions of the threshold switches
The switch positions of the threshold switches of the Braking Modules are positioned on the
panel as follows:
• Braking Modules for frame sizes FX, FB, GX, GB, GD: Position "1" is at the top; position "2"
is at the bottom
• Braking Modules for frame sizes HX and JX: Position "1" is at the back; position "2" is at the
front

1 774 V is the default factory setting. For line voltages of
between 3 AC 380 V and 400 V, the response threshold
2
can be set to 673 V to reduce the voltage stress on the
motor and converter. This does, however, reduce the
possible braking power with the square of the voltage
(673/774)² = 0.75.
The maximum possible braking power is therefore 75%.
1 967 V is the default factory setting. With a supply voltage
of 3 AC 500 V, the response threshold can be set to 841 V
2
to reduce the voltage stress on the motor and converter.
This does, however, reduce the possible braking power
with the square of the voltage (841/967)² = 0.75.
The maximum possible braking power is therefore 75%.
1 1158 V is the default factory setting. With a supply volt-
age of 3 AC 660 V, the response threshold can be set to
2
1070 V to reduce the voltage stress on the motor and
converter. This does, however, reduce the possible brak-
ing power with the square of the voltage (1070/1158)² =
0.85.
The maximum possible braking power is therefore 85%.
