INDUSTRIAL AUTOMATION
All types of AC Drive panels, Variable Frequency Drives (VFD), Microprocessor Frequency Controllers, and inverters make use of power resistors in order to stop the rapid speed of an AC induction motor. We regularly supply our materials to machines involved in automation industries like steel plants, cement plants, slip ring motors, printing presses, and textiles. Such industries make use of aluminum-housed braking resistors as well as wire-wound resistors which are of fixed values or adjustable types.
ELEVATORS
Elevators use electric motors to lift and lower the car. The energy generated during the braking process is usually absorbed by the motor, which can cause it to overheat and potentially fail. By using dynamic braking resistors, the energy generated during braking is dissipated as heat, which helps to protect the motor and improve the overall efficiency of the elevator system. They are often used in conjunction with other braking methods such as mechanical brakes, to ensure a smooth and safe operation of the elevator Our Aluminium Housed Braking Resistors and Wire Wound Resistors with IP20 Galvanized Enclosures are primarily used for such applications. The resistors are usually mounted at the top or next to the control panel.
CRANE & HOISTS
A dynamic braking resistor can be used in a crane system to help dissipate the kinetic energy generated by the moving load when the crane’s hoist motor is decelerating. By converting the kinetic energy into heat, the resistor helps to slow down the load and prevent it from swinging or overspeeding. The dynamic braking resistor is typically connected to the DC bus of the crane’s drive and is activated when the hoist motor is decelerating faster than the drive can safely control. Dynamic braking Resistors with higher power wattages like Punched Grid Resistors are usually used for such applications.
INDUSTRIAL ELECTRICALS
In motor control systems, a dynamic braking resistor help in reducing the speed of the motor when it’s decelerating or stopping, This prevents situations of overvoltage. In addition, dynamic braking resistors can be used in regenerative braking systems, to convert the energy generated during braking into heat and store it for future use. Dynamic braking resistors can also be used in renewable energy applications, such as wind or solar power, to help regulate the output power and prevent the overspeeding of the generator. Usually, Silicone Coated Wire Wound Resistors are used for such applications.
RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT
A dynamic braking resistor is used in various applications where controlled deceleration or braking of moving objects is required. It is heavily used in testing equipment to slow down and stop moving test objects, such as vehicles, aircraft, or heavy machinery, in a controlled manner. It can also be used in material testing equipment, such as torsion testers, to apply a load and then stop the rotating specimen in a controlled manner. Load testing is another common application of a power resistor. For such applications, high-valued power resistors are usually used.
