Mounting steps
How to connect the brake resistor:
1. Disconnect the basic device from the mains and check that no voltage is
applied to the power terminals.
2. Remove the terminal cover.
3. Connect the brake resistor cable:
–
Use a twisted cable for cables up to 0.5 m (connection plan variant 1).
–
Use a shielded cable for cables up to 5 m (connection plan variant 2).
Pass the cable through the cable gland 0.
–
–
Connect the cores to connections RB1, RB2 and PE of the brake resistor
observing the tightening torque. PE connection to EN 61800−5−1.
Tighten the cable gland 0.
–
For shielded cables: Securely connect the shield to the cable gland with
a surface as large as possible.
–
Connect cores and shield to the basic device observing the
documentation for the basic device.
4. Connect the thermal contact cables:
–
Use a twisted cable.
Pass the cable through the cable gland 1.
–
–
Connect the cores to connections T1 and T2 of the brake resistor
observing the tightening torque.
Tighten the cable gland 1.
–
–
When integrating the thermal contact into the system monitoring
ensure that the mains supply will be switched off when the brake
resistor is overheated.
5. Mount the terminal cover.

Note!
If the brake resistor is switched on for the first time or has not been
used for a longer period of time, a smell may develop together with
a low smoke emission. This is harmless.
