Braking Units & Resistors
Brake resistors are essential components in variable frequency drive (VFD) systems, designed to absorb and dissipate excess energy generated during motor deceleration or stopping. When a motor slows down, it acts as a generator and feeds energy back into the drive. Brake resistors safely manage this regenerated energy, preventing overvoltage, protecting equipment, and ensuring stable system performance.
Mechtric supplies a comprehensive range of brake resistors designed for use with Delta VFDs, providing efficient energy dissipation, consistent braking performance, and long-term reliability.
