Be sure to follow these instructions carefully when you see these symbols.

Also read and follow the instructions for all "Notes" and "Remarks."

1. Installation

Title:Creat CAUTION

Mount the dynamic braking unit on a fireproof wall (e.g. metallic wall) or a fire may occur.

(See page 2.)

Keep the dynamic braking unit away from combustible or flammable materials or a fire may occur.

(See page 2.)

Never hold the dynamic braking unit by the front cover when carrying it. It could fall and an injury could occur.

(See page 2.)

Never allow any wires, dust, welding spatters, iron filings, or other materials to get into the unit or a fire may occur.

(See page 2.)

The dynamic braking unit is very heavy. Install the unit on a solid rigid wall strong enough to support it. Otherwise, it could fall and an injury may occur.

(See page 2.)

Do not use any inverter that is partially damaged or incomplete or an injury may occur. (See page 2.)

Avoid any dangerous environment

Do not place the dynamic braking unit in hot, damp, or wet locations. Don't use the dynamic braking unit in the presence of dust, corrosive gases, explosive gases, flammable gases, oil mist, or salt. Keep the dynamic braking unit out of direct sunlight.

(See page 2.)

2. Wiring

Title:Creat DANGER

Creat

Always connect the grounding wire to the dynamic braking unit to prevent electric shock or fire.

(See page 3.)

All wiring should be done by a qualified electrician or electric shock or fire may occur. (See page 3.)

Before wiring, make sure the supply power is off (or the P-N voltage is 45 V or less) to prevent electric shock or fire.

(See page 3.)

Always install the dynamic braking unit on the wall before wiring to prevent electric shock and personal injury.

(See page 3.)

Be sure to provide a thermal relay and a circuit, which shuts off primary power to the inverter. This is to prevent burning-out the external resistor due to overheating if the dynamic braking unit malfunctions.

(See page 3.)

For actual connections, see 4.3 and 4.4.

(See page 3.)

Title:Creat CAUTION

Make sure the voltage rating of the dynamic braking unit is equal to that of the inverter to prevent fire and personal injury.

(See page 3.)

Do not connect resistors directly to the D.C. terminals (P and N) or fire may occur. (See page 3.)

Tighten screws at their correct specified torque (see table on right). Make sure every screw is firmly tightened or fire may occur.

(See page 3.)

The power cables should be MLFC flame-retardant poly-flex wire, allowing a voltage of 600 V and capable of the specified amperage or fire may occur.

(See page 3.)

3. Control and operation

Title:Creat DANGER

Creat

Be sure the front cover on the dynamic braking unit is attached before turning on the power. Never remove the cover of the dynamic braking unit or you may receive an electric shock

(See page 11.)

Do not operate with wet hands or you may receive an electric shock.

(See page 3.)

Never touch any terminal of the dynamic braking unit while the unit power is on (even when the unit has stopped) or you may receive an electric shock.

(See page 3.)

Never touch any part or put anything in the dynamic braking unit while the unit's power is on or you may receive an electric shock or cause a fire.

(See page 3.)

Title:Creat CAUTION

The heat radiating fins and the discharging resistors during use are hot and can cause burns. Do not touch.

GENERAL NOTICES

For simplicity, some figures and illustrations in this manual are shown without the cover or peripheral parts of the device. Be sure to remount the cover and other safety features before running the dynamic braking unit.

1. UNPACKING INSPECTION

Handle the product with care when unpacking. Do not use any excessive force (impacts, vibration, etc.) on the package. Check the following:

(1)Package damage occurring during delivery

(2)Model name, voltage, etc. (order confirmation)

(3)List of accessories (including operation manual)

2.IMPORTANT NOTICES

Note the following to improve and perform safe operation of the dynamic braking unit:

DANGER

Never alter or modify the dynamic braking unit.

Improper servicing may cause serious electric shock and/or personal injury.

Note: Do not use the BRD-E2/E2Z braking unit in combination with earlier versions, (e.g. BRD-VZ or BRD-C1). The operating voltages and terminal configurations are different and may cause the dynamic braking units to malfunction.

Note: Set the DIP switches and connect the wires correctly when setting or changing the operating voltage or when running devices in a parallel connection. Be sure to turn off power to the dynamic braking unit before setting the DIP switches and the connecting wires. (For more information, see "4. Wiring and Function Setting.")

Note: Check wirings and connections carefully. If they are correct you can turn on the power to the inverter.

4. WIRING AND FUNCTION SETTING

4.1Wiring Notices

Title:Creat DANGER

Creat

Always connect the grounding wire to the dynamic braking unit to prevent electric shock or fire.

All wiring should be done by a qualified electrician or electric shock or fire may occur.

Before wiring, make sure the supply power is off (or the P-N voltage is 45 V or less) to prevent electric shock or fire.

Always install the dynamic braking unit on the wall before wiring to prevent electric shock and personal injury.

Be sure to provide a thermal relay and a circuit, which shuts off primary power to the inverter. This is to prevent burning-out the external single resistor due to overheating if the dynamic braking unit malfunctions.

For actual connections, see 4.3 and 4.4.

2.Use cables at their specified ratings as short as possible: up to 5 meters between the dynamic braking unit and the inverter (P, N) and up to 50 meters between the dynamic braking unit and the discharging resistor (P, RB) (or up to 5 meters for the EZ2-30K). Also make the wire connections as short as possible. Do not loop extra cable.

The cables must be tied together and supported firmly so there is no excessive load on the dynamic braking unit.

3.When the parallel connection interlocking function is used, signal cables (MA1, MA2, SL1, and SL2) between the dynamic braking units must be no more than five meters in length and no more than 0.75 mm2 in width in its section area. The signal cable must be fully separated from the main circuit cable.

Main circuit cable

Signal cable

10 cm or more

4.When a combination of various resistors are used, the inductance in the resistors may raise the surge voltage during the switching operation. To prevent this, use larger cables or twist them.

Always use up to six non-induction resistors as external resistors.

5.Use insulated crimping terminals to connect the cables to the terminal board TM1 (or TM2 of the EZ2).

6.Use closed-loop terminals with insulated caps to connect cables to the terminal board TM2 (or TM3 of the EZ2).
