LOAD BRAKING RESISTORS

DESCRIPTION

Braking resistors protect traction motors during start-up. As a result, the current in the motor is limited and therefore protected. Similarly, these load resistors can protect generators against excessive voltage resulting from induction.

FIELDS OF APPLICATION

Lift drives, conveyors, cable cars, as well as all types of drives in which rapid speed changes are required by the regulation or control system and therefore the excess energy can be used for other purposes
