Braking
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| 1. ___ braking is a method of dynamic braking that reuses the braking energy to the AC source instead of dissipating the energy as heat. | Regenerative |
| 2. A solenoid is used to activate the brake shoes with ___ brakes. | friction |
| 3. A Brake solenoid should always be connected directly into the __- circuit. | motor |
| 4. ___ braking requires more maintenance than any other method of braking. | Friction |
| 5. A typical solenoid brake coil is rated for __VAC and can be used in both the low- and high-voltage connections of a dual-voltage motor. | 240 |
| 6. Plugging a motor to a stop results in high current and heat. True or False | True |
| 7. In the event of a power failure, __ is the only method that can stop a motor. | friction braking |
| 8. __ braking can be used to provide an immediate stop, particularly in an emergency situation. | Electric |
| 9. A single-phase shaded-pole motor can be used in a plugging circuit because it can be reversed at full speed. True or False | False that type of motor cannot be reversed at any speed. |
| 10.The __ in the control circuit prevents the motor starter and braking contactor from being energized at the same time. | interlock system |
| 11. Braking a motor one time by plugging puts about the same amount of heat into the rotor as starting the motor at full voltage. True or False | False. Plugging may create 3 or more times the current than normal starting. Plugging reverses the motor at full speed. |
| 12. A motor drive can control the time it takes for a motor to stop. True or False | True |
| 13. Power resistors are used with ___ braking to dissipate the heat of braking. | dynamic |
| 14. A(n) ___ with tapped windings is used to adjust the amount of braking torque applied to a motor. | transformer |
| 15. Dynamic braking can NOT brake a motor to a complete stop or be used as a holding brake. True or False | True |
| 16. ___ braking requires frequent inspection, maintenance, and replacement of brake shoes. | Friction |
| 17. In a dual-voltage delta-configured motor wired for high-voltage operation, the solenoid brake coil is wired across only one coil. True or False | True |
| 18. In friction braking, the braking action is applied directly to the shaft. True or False | False. Brake shoes or pads contact a wheel on the shaft. |
| 19. Total interlocking is the use of mechanical, electrical, and pushbutton interlocking. True or False | True |
| 20. The motor connections are reversed with ___ so that the motor develops a reversed torque to brake the motor. | plugging |
| 22. In the illustration page 62, a load (shunt) resistor is used with a dynamic braking system. What is the purpose of the resistor? How does it act as a brake? | provides path for current. |
| 23. in the illustration page 62, coil B is a solenoid brake coil that is installed correctly. The voltage rating of the coil is ___V. | 240 |
