Product Description:

The RZW02.1-037-015 Braking Resistor is a product designed and manufactured by Bosch Rexroth Indramat. It is developed for integration with electric drive systems to manage regenerative energy during motor deceleration. The resistor is compatible with 37 kW frequency converters and delivers precise safe braking performance in demanding applications.

The RZW02.1-037-015 braking resistor has a minimum connectable resistance of 7 ohms that allows flexible connection configurations. Its peak power rating is 33 kW which means it can handle high load spikes efficiently. The resistor operates with a 15 % short duty (SD) operating factor. This makes it suitable for applications with intermittent braking cycles. It features a thermal time constant of 100 milliseconds that enables quick response to temperature changes during operation. The resistor can endure power surges up to four times its continuous power rating during its ON period which supports momentary overload conditions. The resistor is built for compact panel integration and can be mounted easily within control cabinets. The design reduces the risk of overheating by ensuring heat is dissipated efficiently. The total weight of the braking resistor is 9.5 kg. It is designed for horizontal or vertical mounting configurations depending on installation requirements. The housing is durable and supports continuous operation in a range of environmental conditions including factory floors and automated systems.

The RZW02.1-037-015 braking resistor offers stable and repeatable thermal performance during each braking cycle. The RZW series braking resistor can be protected from overload conditions by utilizing the integrated monitoring functionality within the RD 500 firmware. This feature continuously tracks parameters such as resistor temperature, power dissipation and duty cycle. If predefined thresholds are exceeded, the system initiates protective actions including derating or disabling the braking function to prevent thermal damage.
