Product Description:

The RZW03.1-011-025 is a braking resistor produced by Bosch Rexroth Indramat for the RZW Braking Resistors series. Connected to an AC drive’s DC bus, it converts surplus regenerative energy into heat so the drive can decelerate a motor without causing an overvoltage condition. The resistor supports automated axes that undergo frequent braking by providing a controlled path for energy returned from the motor. This function helps prevent excessive DC-bus voltage during rapid deceleration and allows the connected drive to manage regenerative loads safely.

The unit can absorb up to 11 kW of electrical power during each braking event, a value matched to its nominal resistance of 23 Ω. At this resistance, the minimum connectable limit of 20 Ω is respected, ensuring that the drive remains within its allowable current range. The housing carries a protection rating of IP23, so airborne particles larger than 12 mm and falling water at angles up to 60 degrees from vertical will not impair operation. An operating factor of 25% SD permits the resistor to remain energized for one-quarter of the 120-second load cycle before cooling. Heat stored in the resistor elements dissipates with a thermal time constant of 100 s, providing a reference for evaluating temperature changes during repeated braking. Copper cables with cross-sectional areas up to 4 mm² connect to M10 terminals. The frame uses design 1 within the product group.

The permitted energization window consists of a maximum on-time of 30 s followed by an off-time of at least 90 s. This operating pattern keeps the surface temperature from exceeding 80 °C under the stated operating conditions. The assembly measures 520 mm high, 395 mm wide, and 490 mm deep, allowing it to be installed beside standard control cabinets when the required ventilation clearances are maintained. The resistor weighs 26 kg, providing thermal mass that helps absorb heat generated during rapid braking sequences without external cooling hardware. Adequate space around the enclosure allows naturally circulating air to carry stored heat away from the resistor between operating periods.
