ABB-43164

The ABB Braking Resistor (SKU: ABB-43164) is engineered for industrial motor control applications. This unit features a 4 OHM resistance and a substantial 30,976 WATTS power rating, crucial for dissipating regenerative energy during motor deceleration. This prevents overvoltage on the DC bus, protecting variable frequency drives (VFDs) and motors from damage. The resistor is housed in an ED3 enclosure, providing a durable and protective casing suitable for industrial environments. Its physical dimensions are 30 inches wide, 18 inches deep, and 24 inches high, with a weight of 133 lbs. These specifications make it suitable for integration into existing control panels and machinery. Manufactured by ABB Low Voltage Drives, this braking resistor is designed to enhance the reliability and safety of heavy-duty industrial machinery by managing braking energy effectively. Its robust construction and significant power handling capability ensure consistent performance in demanding operational scenarios.
