Because thefrequency converter is not a safety device, the crane/liftdesigner (OEM) must decide on the type and number ofsafety devices (e.g. speed switch, emergency brakes etc.) tobe used, in order to be able to stop the load in case ofemergency or malfunction of the system, according torelevant national crane/lift regulations.L1 L2 L3U V W02 01A1A2130BA902.10Drive OutputrelayCommand Circuit220VacMechanicalBrakeShaftMotorFrewheelingdiodeBrake380VacOutputContactorInputPower CircuitIllustration 2.19 Connecting the Mechanical Brake to theFrequency Converter2.4.6 Serial CommunicationConnect RS-485 serial communication wiring to terminals(+)68 and (-)69.• Screened serial communication cable isrecommended• See 2.4.2 Earth (Grounding) Requirements forproper grounding616869+130BB489.10RS-485Illustration 2.20 Serial Communication Wiring DiagramInstallation VLT®AutomationDrive OperatingInstructionsMG33AM02 - VLT® is a registered Danfoss trademark 192 2
