P14494-41

The ABB P14494-41 braking resistor is a high-power dissipation solution designed for dynamic braking in low-voltage drive systems. Rated at 21 ohms and 1050 watts, this resistor provides precise energy dissipation to control motor deceleration and prevent overvoltage conditions in variable frequency drive applications. Housed in a GCE3 enclosure, it measures 12 inches wide by 10 inches deep by 5 inches high and weighs 13 pounds, making it suitable for industrial environments requiring robust thermal management. The resistor’s compact footprint and heavy-duty construction ensure reliable performance in demanding applications such as conveyor systems, pumps, and fans where rapid motor braking is required. Compatible with ABB low-voltage drives, this resistor integrates seamlessly into existing braking circuits to enhance system safety and efficiency. Its 21-ohm resistance value balances braking torque with energy dissipation, while the 1050-watt rating supports continuous operation under typical industrial duty cycles.
