5 OHM 8kW BRAKING RESISTOR

SKU 1888370fa854 Category

The VW3GBR5W8000 is a 5 ohm, 8 kW braking resistor manufactured by Schneider Electric. This resistor is designed to be used in braking systems to dissipate excess energy generated during deceleration or stopping of electric motors or drives.

The VW3GBR5W8000 is an essential component in applications where rapid deceleration or frequent stopping is required, such as elevators, cranes, conveyor systems, and electric vehicles. It helps to protect the motor and drive from damage caused by excessive energy build-up by providing a path for the dissipation of the energy in the form of heat.

With its 5 ohm resistance, the VW3GBR5W8000 effectively limits the braking current in the system, preventing overvoltage and protecting the braking chopper or drive. This resistance value is suitable for systems operating at voltages within the specified range.

With its high power rating of 8 kW, the VW3GBR5W8000 can handle large amounts of energy without overheating. This ensures reliable and continuous operation in demanding braking applications.
