ABB-48431-515

The ABB-48431-515 Braking Resistor, manufactured by ABB Low Voltage Drives, is engineered for industrial applications requiring effective energy dissipation during motor deceleration. This resistor features a 1 Ohm resistance value and a substantial 40,000 Watt (40kW) power rating, ensuring it can handle significant braking energy. It is housed within an ED3 enclosure, providing robust protection for operation in demanding industrial environments. The physical dimensions are 30 inches wide, 18 inches deep, and 24 inches high, with a weight of 193 lbs. This unit is designed for integration with variable frequency drives (VFDs) and is suitable for applications such as conveyor systems and other heavy-duty machinery where controlled motor stopping is essential. Its specifications contribute to maintaining system stability and can help prolong the operational life of connected equipment by managing regenerative braking energy.
