Product Description:

The Bosch Rexroth Indramat RZW03.1-160-006 braking resistor stands ready to handle demanding drive applications.

The RZW series 160 kW braking resistor works perfectly for stopping procedures in regenerative systems because it delivers 144 kW peak power capacity. The product works with a 6% switch-on duration design and connects directly to 2.2 Ω resistance or above to provide effective control and safety during braking events. The steel plate construction of our housing guarantees reliability against corrosion and physical damage with high standards of IP23 protection to shut out solid objects and slight water spray. To keep the unit running efficiently, the integrated axial ventilator operates at 3.5 kVA by receiving power from a 3-phase AC supply of 400 V and 50 Hz. The engineered airflow system helps the unit handle high-performance demands better by managing heat effectively. The thermal time constant of 100 seconds shows that the unit handles and releases heat efficiently throughout its operation cycle.

The resistor installs directly into the system due to its weight of about 86 kg, which meets specified dimensions. Testing shows the device delivers strong insulation protection since its tested insulation resistance measures more than 100 MΩ when the device is cold at 500 V DC and meets IEC standards. The device follows EN 60068-2-6 standards to withstand vibrations reliably at industrial work sites. Screw clamps in the terminal block deliver dependable connections during wiring. The product accepts either 95 mm² wires for 40% power usage or a combination of two 50 mm² wires for 60% power applications in response to changing operating conditions. It can be purchased at Wake Industrial with a one-year warranty.
