ABB-48431-004

The ABB Braking Resistor (SKU: ABB-48431-004) is a 22-ohm, 1408-watt resistor designed for industrial braking applications in variable frequency drives (VFDs) and motor control systems. This resistor efficiently dissipates excess energy during motor deceleration, preventing overvoltage conditions and protecting drive components. The GCE4 enclosure provides IP20-rated protection against dust and non-conductive particles, ensuring reliable operation in harsh industrial environments. With compact dimensions of 12 inches wide x 13 inches deep x 5 inches high and weighing 16 pounds, it fits standard industrial enclosures while maintaining a lightweight profile. The resistor's 22-ohm resistance and 1408-watt power rating make it suitable for medium-duty braking applications in manufacturing, automation, and material handling systems. Compatible with ABB's variable frequency drives, this braking resistor enhances system safety by safely converting kinetic energy into heat during deceleration cycles.
