DBR.
➋
If the motor has a series field, connect the motor series leads between drive terminal 45 and DB resistor
terminal DBR.
➌
Connect the suppressor included with the kit between DB contactor terminals A1 and A2 and place the label
included with the kit near the contactor.
➍
Use auxiliary contacts 33
&
34 when available.
➎
Remove the jumper between terminals 3

Wiring
Dynamic braking slows down a rotating DC motor and its load. It is an uncontrolled process. During dynamic
braking, the motor armature is disconnected from the drive. A resistor is placed across the motor’s rotating
armature (now acting as a generator), and the resulting current causes braking torque in the motor. The motor
will decelerate, even with a drive malfunction, as long as motor shunt field excitation is maintained.
The drive must have the DC contactor open for dynamic braking to occur. Dynamic Braking is typically initiated
with a Coast/DB stop command or a drive fault. Under drive fault conditions, the DC contactor opens and applies
the dynamic braking grid across the armature for a dynamic braking stop.
