(2) Selection of the regenerative option
(a) Simple selection method
In horizontal motion applications, select the regenerative option as described below.
When the servo motor is run without load in the regenerative mode from the running speed to a
stop, the permissible duty is as indicated in section 5.1 of the separately available Servo Motor
Instruction Manual.
For the servo motor with a load, the permissible duty changes according to the inerti a moment of
the load and can be calculated by the fol lowing formula.

From the permissible duty, find whether the regenerative option is required or not.

Select the regenerative option ou t of the combinations in (1) in this section.
(b) To make selection according to regenerative energy
Use the following method when regeneration occurs continuously in vertical motion applications or
when it is desired to make an in-depth selection of the regenerative option.
