This energy is available at load for a time of:

where
t
min
= backup time in milliseconds [ms]
P
max
= power in kilowatts [kW]
= degree of efficiency of the drive unit = 0.90
Example:
E = 432 Ws
P

= 432 Ws/16 kW * 0.9 = 24.3 ms
in order to initiate the emergency retraction.
The table below shows a summary of the values for different infeed/regenerative feedback
units. Nominal and minimum capacitances have been taken into account. The maximum
possible capacitance (load limit) consists of the sum of the capacitances of the
infeed/regenerative feedback module and the axis/spindle modules plus additional external
capacitors (provided by the customer). The minimum capacitance shown in the table takes
account of a component tolerance of -20% (worst case).

Note:
In configuring the emergency retraction, a total energy must be calculated to find out if it is
possible to eliminate an additional generator axis/spindle (with an appropriately dimensioned
centrifugal mass).
