Industrial Dynamic Braking Resistor

Product Description

Industrial Dynamic Braking Resistor is an electrical component used in industrial applications to slow down or stop the motion of rotating machinery. When the power to an AC motor is suddenly cut off, the motor continues to spin due to its inertia. This spinning can be dangerous and damaging to the motor and the machinery it is connected to. Industrial Dynamic Braking Resistor provides a path for the motor's electrical energy to dissipate as heat, which slows down the motor quickly and safely. The resistor is connected in parallel to the motor, and when the power is cut off, the resistor allows the motor's energy to be dissipated as heat, slowing down the motor.
