ABB-41169

The ABB Braking Resistor (SKU: ABB-41169) is a precision-engineered resistor designed for dynamic braking in industrial motor control systems. With a resistance of 11 ohms and a power dissipation rating of 3700 watts, it safely converts kinetic energy into heat during deceleration, preventing overvoltage conditions in variable frequency drives (VFDs). The resistor features a GCE6 enclosure for IP20-rated protection against dust and incidental contact, ensuring reliable operation in harsh environments. Measuring 19 inches wide x 10 inches deep x 5 inches high and weighing 19 pounds, it is optimized for compact installations while maintaining high thermal capacity. Compatible with ABB Low Voltage Drives, this braking resistor reduces mechanical stress on braking components by providing controlled energy dissipation. It is manufactured in the US and carries the UNSPSC code 39122004 for industrial braking systems.
