Efficient energy dissipation Protects VFD from overvoltage Enhances braking performance Robust construction Designed for Altivar drives Easy to connect

Product description

The Schneider Electric ATVRD15N4 is an accessory resistor designed for use with Altivar variable frequency drives (VFDs). This brake resistor has a resistance of 15 Ohms and a power dissipation rating of 400W, intended to absorb excess regenerative energy generated by the motor during deceleration.

This resistor is crucial for applications where the motor frequently decelerates or overhauls, helping to protect the VFD from overvoltage conditions. It ensures efficient and safe operation of the drive system by dissipating the generated energy as heat.

Stanlo Automation, a veteran-owned surplus distributor, offers the Schneider Electric ATVRD15N4. Procure essential VFD accessories from a trusted partner and maintain the integrity and performance of your automation equipment.
