EATON DG1 Series Dynamic Braking Resistors
Eaton DG1 Series dynamic braking resistors are suitable for dissipating the energy generated by regenerative loads in a control system. They are specifically used with adjustable frequency drives and regulate the voltage and current in the system, thus preventing damage to the internal componen...ts. They have a compact design and rugged construction, making them suitable for harsh industrial environments. Read more
AWorking Mechanism
- As the energy is supplied to the resistor, it creates a voltage drop across the resistor and generates a current flow.
- This current flow causes the resistor to heat up and dissipate the energy in the form of heat into the atmosphere.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between dynamic resistors and static resistors?
Dynamic resistors can handle high-power, high-frequency regenerative loads, while static resistors are designed for low-frequency, low-power loads.
How do I size a dynamic braking resistor?
Dynamic braking resistors can be sized by considering the requirements of each application, including the resistance value and power rating needed to handle the regenerative energy generated by the load.
Are these resistors included with accessories?
Eaton DG1 Series dynamic braking resistors offer a wide range of accessories and options, including mounting hardware, protective covers and temperature monitoring devices. They help to simplify installation and ensure the reliability & performance of the resistors over time.
