ABB-42685

The ABB Braking Resistor (ABB-42685) is a 21,000-watt resistor with 1.72Ω resistance, designed for dynamic braking in industrial motor control systems. Built for compatibility with ABB Low Voltage Drives, it dissipates excess energy during deceleration, preventing overvoltage conditions and maintaining system stability. The ED2-rated enclosure protects against dust, water, and mechanical stress, ensuring reliable operation in harsh environments. Measuring 30 inches wide, 18 inches deep, and 16 inches high, it weighs 89 pounds and fits standard industrial mounting configurations. With a compact footprint and robust construction, this resistor is ideal for applications requiring precise torque control and energy recovery, such as conveyors, pumps, and CNC machinery. Its high power rating supports continuous operation at rated load, reducing thermal stress and extending service life. Trust ABB’s expertise in power control solutions for dependable braking performance in your industrial automation systems.
