Product Description
Installation of the Dynamic Braking kit enables a single-phase FlexPak™ Plus or MinPak™ Plus DC drive to provide rapid, smooth stopping of the motor. If the Dynamic Braking kit is not used, the drive causes the motor to coast to rest when the contactor opens.
The Dynamic Braking kit includes a resistor that is automatically switched across the motor’s armature when the drive is stopped. The rotating mechanical energy of the motor is converted into electrical energy that is rapidly dissipated as heat. The resistor is sized for infrequent stops, so time must be allowed between stops for the heat to dissipate.
equipment. Read and understand this manual and other applicable manuals in their entirety before proceeding. Failure to observe this precaution could result in severe bodily injury or loss of life.
Important: The dynamic brake is not a mechanical holding brake. It will not hold the motor shaft in place. It will
not prevent the motor from turning once motion has stopped.
The Dynamic Braking kit must be rated for the drive’s horsepower and voltage rating, as shown in table 1. Refer to your drive’s nameplate for the horsepower and voltage rating. The Dynamic Braking kit contents are also listed in table 1.

Installing the Dynamic Braking Kit in a FlexPak Plus DC Drive
ATTENTION:
out, and tag all sources of incoming AC power to the drive before attempting such installation.

Important:
Refer to your FlexPak Plus DC drive instruction manual for help locating and identifying drive components. Step 1. Disconnect, lock out, and tag input power to the drive.
Step 2. Remove the drive cover. Step 3. Verify that no voltage is present at the drive’s AC input terminals, L1 and L2. Step 4. Mount the dynamic braking resistor in the upper right corner on the back of the FlexPak Plus auxiliary
Step 5.
V erify that no voltage is present at the drive’s AC input terminals, L1 and L2. Failure to observe this precaution could resu lt in severe bodily injury or loss of life.

damage to, or destruction of, the equipment.
Step 7. If a reversing contactor is installed, make sure jumper J9 is removed from the Regulator board (near
the top of board). See the FlexPak Plus DC drive instruction manual for jumper location. Step 8. Verify the wiring of the Dynamic Braking resistor and that all connectors are securely fastened. Step 9. Reattach the cover to the drive. Step 10. Apply power and test the braking capability of the drive. This completes installation of the Dynamic Braking kit for FlexPak Plus DC drives.
