Product catalog summary
Overview:
This document provides technical specifications and operational guidelines for the VersiBrake L (LP) braking devices, suitable for asynchronous and mono-phase motors. It includes details on features, functions, type designations, technical data, and typical applications.

Features:
  • DC braking with one-way rectification.
  • Microcontroller-controlled operation.
  • Easy mounting, suitable for retrofitting.
  • Wear-resistant and maintenance-free.
  • Integrated braking contactor.
  • Available in case version (IP 20) and printed circuit-board version (IP 00).
  • Complies with DIN EN ISO 13849-1 for safety requirements.

Functionality:
  • Braking initiated via motor voltage detection and motor contactor.
  • Overload protection and braking current cutoff after motor standstill.
  • Automatic remanence time optimization and adjustable braking current (10-100%).
  • Potential-free output for motor contactor interlocking during braking.
  • Adjustable standstill threshold for different motor types.

Type Designations and Specifications:
  • Models: VB 230-6L, VB 230-25L, VB 230-30L, VB 400-6L, VB 400-25L, VB 400-30L.
  • Rated device current ranges from 6A to 30A.
  • Mains voltage: 220/240V or 380/415V ±10%, 50/60Hz.
  • Order numbers provided for both case and printed circuit-board versions.

Technical Data:
  • Power draw of electronics: 3 VA.
  • Recommended motor current varies by model.
  • Max braking frequency and I²t-value specified for each model.
  • Braking voltage ranges from 0 to 220VDC.
  • Max braking time: 12 seconds.
  • Contact rating: 3A/250VAC; 3A/30VDC.
  • Ambient/storage temperature: 0°C to 45°C / -25°C to 75°C.

Applications:
  • Suitable for saws, conveyors, woodworking machines, grinding machines, and more.

Notes:
  • Consider higher starting and braking currents for IE3 motors.
  • Recommend sizing softstarters and braking devices one size higher for IE3 motors.

Connection Diagram:
  • Includes detailed connection instructions and terminal-phase connections.
  • Fault signaling contact and interlock features described.
