1. INTRODUCTION
RGN-B06 is a safe and efficient unit that utilizes advanced technology and engineering methods to feed the energy which is
potentially to be lost on brake resistors, into current mains when motors in lift systems run as generators.
•RGN-B06 supplies the grid with true sine wave with low harmonic distortion, utilizing high resolution PWM methods
and Vector control techniques.
•It gives fast in response to grid fluctuations thanks to its optimized software.
•Can be integrated to lift control systems by control inputs, relay outputs and CANBUS port.
•Start conditions and input voltage to reach the maximum power can be configurable.
•RGN-B06 has a user interface to configure all its parameters which have been kept simple for easy installation.
•RGN-B06 saves statistics such as regenerative travel count and produced energy.

3. RGN-B06 OVERVIEW
Motors in lift systems act as power generators when travelling downwards with heavy load or upwards with light load. During
the breaking period this power is even higher. This energy causes internal bus voltage to rise. Traditionally, over a safety level
of bus voltage, break resistors are used to waste this energy as heat. RGN-B06 feeds this potentially lost energy back to the
utility grid. It can be connected to the brake resistor in parallel.

5. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
•The installation and commissioning work must be performed only by qualified and authorized personnel.
•The regenerative unit must be placed in vertical upside position.
•Incorrect handling can cause to physical injuries and material damage.
•Before working on the device, it must be disconnected from input.
•Do not disconnect any cables or mechanical part when the unit is under load and running.
•Do not operate the device in conditions which do not meet the ambient values specified in this manual.

RGN-B06 User Manual V1.12
•The maintenance has to be performed only by ARKEL personnel.
•Do not remove any warning signs installed by manufacturer.
•The product must not be installed without Protective Earth connection.
•Use appropriate fuse and ground fault circuit interrupter on mains line connection.
•The device can be operated safely and normally only if it is installed and operated in accordance with this manual.
ARKEL is not responsible for any damage if these instructions are not followed.
6. POWER LINES CONNECTIONS
Figure 2 Mains Connection Terminal
6.1. DC Input Connections
This is the DC input terminal for RGN-B06 unit. DC BUS poles of the lift’s inverter system should be connected in right order
for proper operation. RGN-B06 has an internal diode in order to protect itself against wrong connection.
DC Input Conductor must have a cross section of at least 4mm2. Multi-wire cables with isolation of 1kV should be used.
Do not forget to label it as High Voltage warning!
6.2. Mains Output
Mains supply and PE connections. RGN-B06 software can identify phase orders automatically.
RGN-B06 must have a permanent PE connection!
These connections should be made with Proper fuse and leakage sensor protection!
Phase conductors must have a cross section of at least 2.5 mm2. Multi-wire cables with isolation of 500 V should be
used.
