ABB-48431-425

The ABB Braking Resistor (SKU: ABB-48431-425) is a high-power energy dissipation solution for low voltage drive systems. With a resistance of 1.5 ohms and a power rating of 60,000 watts, this resistor safely absorbs and dissipates excess energy generated during braking operations in industrial machinery. The ED5-rated enclosure provides IP54 protection against dust and water ingress, ensuring reliable operation in harsh environments. Designed for integration with ABB low voltage drives, this resistor measures 30 inches in width, 18 inches in depth, and 40 inches in height, weighing 294 pounds. Its compact footprint allows installation in control panels or dedicated braking resistor cabinets. The resistor’s robust construction supports continuous operation at rated power, preventing overvoltage conditions in drive systems. Ideal for applications such as material handling, conveyors, cranes, and elevators, this braking resistor enhances system safety by preventing regenerative energy feedback. Its compatibility with ABB drives ensures seamless integration and optimized braking performance in demanding industrial settings.
