Aluminium Housed 500W Braking Resistor

This aluminium housed braking resistor provides a 100 ohm, 500W load for industrial power and drive systems. It suits engineers who need reliable energy dissipation in elevator, transducer, ship or lifting equipment. The rugged silver tone aluminium body is built for hard environments and cooling plate mounting.

Replaces Smaller Wirewound Units

Upgrade when an existing resistor overheats or cannot sustain continuous braking cycles in high requirement equipment. The jump is worth it when duty cycles demand the full 500W rating and the aluminium housing can transfer heat to a cooling plate. Multi connection forms simplify retrofitting onto legacy mounting patterns.

100 Ohm 500W Continuous Capacity

The resistor comfortably handles sustained braking loads up to its 500W rating when mounted on a suitable cooling surface. It runs out of headroom if airflow is blocked or the cooling plate is undersized, causing surface temperature to rise rapidly. The 654g mass and compact 24.5 x 6 x 3cm frame limit thermal mass for very long pulses.

Questions about this item

What are the overall dimensions of the 500W 100ohm braking resistor?

The aluminum housed resistor measures 24.5 x 6 x 3cm (9.6" x 2.4" x 1.2") and weighs 654g.

How do I mount the resistor and what hole spacing is required?

Mount the resistor using the installation spacing pitch of ~0.6cm (0.236") and terminals with an inner diameter of ~0.4cm (0.157"); it is designed for cooling plate installation.

What cable length is provided for connections and is it replaceable?

The unit includes cables sized at 30 x 0.5cm (11.8" x 0.2" L x OD); they are fixed to the terminals so plan routing before final mounting.
