System role
This section explains what the product does and where it acts in the surrounding system.
- Function
- Dissipates regenerative drive energy through the documented braking path to control DC-link energy.
- System position
- Sits on the drive DC-link braking path between the drive system and the braking resistor or energy-dissipation load.
- Upstream / inputs
- Receives regenerative energy from the upstream SIMOVERT or SINAMICS drive DC link.
- Downstream / outputs
- Routes braking energy to the downstream resistor or dissipation load within the documented power limit.
- Limitations
- Unknown: drive topology compatibility, braking resistor fit, and current commercial status require separate confirmation.
