Brake output
Externally-supplied motor brakes are usually powered via a jumper on the motor terminal
board.
Since switching the motor and brake simultaneously can increase wear and tear to the
brake, all M200D motor starters can be fitted with an optional electronic brake controller.
Depending on the order variant, the following externally-supplied brake coils can be
controlled:
● 400 V AC / 230 V
(The brake rectifier must be installed in the motor. The rectifier input is controlled via the
motor starter).
● 180 V DC
(A rectifier is not required for the brake in the motor because the motor starter provides
the 180 V DC. In this way, brake coils for 180 V DC can be switched directly).
The brake voltage is fed to the motor together with the motor infeed via a joint cable (e.g.
6 x 1.5 mm
2
). For more information about connecting the brake output, see section Brake
output (Page 60).
Brake release delay at startup
A fixed ON-delay time of 40 ms is set for the M200D AS-i Basic motor starter to prevent wear
and tear to the brake (e.g. the motor output is activated 40 ms after the brake output).
In reversing mode, the release delay does not begin until the lock-out time has expired.
