4 Product name, model definition and usage
Instruction:
Table 3 Product model instruction
DBU100H series dynamic braking units are the high-performance and heavy-load dynamic
braking units promoted by our company, which can brakes at the rated braking current to meet
the application need in the situation of big inertia, crash deceleration and stop. When the DBU
brakes, momentum will be converted into electric energy because of big inertia, and then the
DC bus voltage will increase. The braking unit can consume the regenerative electric energy to
ensure normal work of the DBU; otherwise the DBU will carry our overvoltage protection and
work abnormally.
The braking unit can be used in the situation of big inertia and crash-stop. Such as elevators,
textile machines, paper machinery, centrifuges, washing machines, wire drawing machines,
winder, the proportion of linkage systems, crane and mining, and lifting system.

8 Selection
8.1 Guidelines of braking voltage selection
The setting of the braking voltage is low enough to make the DBU works around the rated
voltage and ensure a safe running. Select high braking voltage can avoid misaction of the
braking unit, but too high voltage has impact on the long-term running safety.
8.2 Calculation of the braking resistor and the braking current
(at 100% of the braking torque)
Braking current is the DC current running through the braking unit and the braking resistor
during braking.
Calculating at the standard AC motor of 380V:
P―――― Rated power of the motor (kW)
V―――― DC operating point of the braking unit, usually it is 700V
I―――― Braking current (A)
―――― Conversion efficiency of the mechanical energy during feedback, usually it is 1.0
Calculation basis: the braking resistor needs to absorb all the regenerative electric energy of
the motor.
Absorbed power of the braking resistor (V*I)=The regenerative electric energy of the motor
(W)=1000*P*
8.3 Calculation and selection of the braking resistor
(at 100% of the braking torque)
The braking resistor reflects the braking torque in the system. If the braking torque is too small,
the DBU will carry out overvoltage protection.
Calculating at the standard AC motor of 380V:
P―――― Rated power of the motor (kW)
PR―――― Rated consumed power of the braking resistor (kW)
V――――DC operating point of the braking unit, usually it is 700V
R―――― Equivalent resistance of the braking resistor (Ω)
――――Conversion efficiency of the mechanical energy during feedback, usually it is 1.0
――――Safety coefficient of the power consumption for the braking resistor
Kf――― Braking frequency, the time ratio of the regeneration to the whole working time
Usually, Kf is:
Winding up and winding down Kf=50-60%
Oilfield machines Kf=10-20%
Elevators Kf=10-15%
Centrifuge Kf=5-20%

8.7 Selection of the braking resistors:
It is recommended to apply non-inductive resistance to reduce the inductance.
The protective devices for auto-partitioning during overheating are necessary.
The grounding fault is prohibited; otherwise the damage to the device and DBU may

Note:
Parallel braking unit can enlarge the braking capacity.
The braking capacity of 2 parallel braking units is two times of one braking unit. For example
DBU100H-220-4=DBU100H-110-4*2。

9 Maintenance and hardware diagnostics
9.1 Maintenance intervals
If installed in an appropriate environment, the dynamic braking unit requires very little
maintenance. The table lists the routine maintenance intervals recommended by INVT.

9.2 Cooling fan
The dynamic braking unit’s cooling fan has a minimum life span of 25,000 operating hours. The
actual life span depends on the usage and ambient temperature.
Fan failure can be predicted by the increasing noise from the fan bearings. If the braking unit is
operated in a critical part of a process, fan replacement is recommended once these symptoms
appear. Replacement fans are available from INVT.
9.2.1 Replacing the cooling fan
1. Stop the DBU and disconnect it from the AC power source and wait for at least the time
designated on the DBU.
2. Lever the fan holder off the drive frame with a screwdriver and lift the hinged fan holder
slightly upward from its front edge.
3. Free the fan cable from the clip.
4. Disconnect the fan cable.
5. Remove the fan holder from the hinges.
6. Install the new fan holder including the fan in reverse order.
7. Restore power.
9.3 Power cable
1. Stop the drive and disconnect it from the power line. Wait for at least the time designated on
the braking unit.
2. Check the tightness of the power cable connections.
3. Restore power.
