Braking Resistor

Even if the de-energized motor is requested to stop, at that moment Thanks to the kinetic energy it has, it continues to rotate for a while.

The rotor keeps turning For this, the engine works like a generator and feeds the network. Keeping this generative working phase short and converting this energy produced in the opposite direction into heat For this, the inverter converts this energy to DC and transfers it to the braking resistor of appropriate power and ohms, which is connected to the “Braking Resistor” terminals.

Braking resistor is used to make AC motors stop in a short time under inverter control.
