Braking Resistors for Industrial Drives

Braking resistors are used with variable frequency drives (VFDs) and motor drives to dissipate excess regenerative energy generated when a motor rapidly decelerates. They help provide controlled braking and can reduce the risk of DC-bus overvoltage during frequent stopping and deceleration.

AY Capital supplies and sources VFD braking resistors, dynamic braking resistors and drive braking components for industrial automation applications. They are commonly used in conveyors, hoists, elevators, cranes, winding machines, centrifuges, machine tools and other equipment requiring rapid motor deceleration.

For replacement requirements, share the drive brand, drive model, motor power, resistance value (Ω) or a picture of the existing resistor/nameplate. AY Capital can help identify and source the appropriate braking resistor for your industrial automation system.
