I run the VFD (that's never varied) on my old Monarch lathe without using
braking. It has terminals to connect a braking resistor but for this machine
there's no need.
What I find crazy is that a simple, single function device that only converts
single phase to three phase, without all the fancy features of a VFD, costs so
much more than a VFD. When a 3HP VFD for 220~240VAC input can be had for under
$300, why isn't a version that does absolutely nothing, no adjustments, no
variation, no programmability, but do the phase conversion not cost well under
$200 instead of a whole lot more?
If some company produced a box that was just a phase converter with an on/off
button and terminals for a remote switch as the only 'extras', and put a
$199.99 price on it, they'd be hard pressed to keep up with demand.

So what exactly do they do when the bus voltage rises during decel ??
Or is there no decel control at all?
I've never seen a drive without braking circuitry and DC bus voltage
control.
