Re: Pf40 for Centrifuge Application

There is a very good publication that describes the calculations necessary to properly size and specify dynamic braking resistors for all PowerFlex family drives.

 

It is Rockwell Automation Publication PFLEX-AT001.   It is available for download from the Rockwell Automation Literature Website.
