Product Description:

The 15.BR.110-6563 is a braking resistor manufactured by KEB for the BR Braking Resistors series. Installed on the DC link of an inverter, the unit converts surplus regenerative energy into heat so that the drive bus voltage stays within safe limits during motor deceleration. By providing this controlled energy dissipation path, it protects both the frequency converter and the connected motor from overvoltage events that can arise in industrial automation cycles involving rapid stops or directional changes.

The resistor is rated for a continuous thermal load of 620 W, meaning it can dissipate that amount of power indefinitely without exceeding its design temperature. For short braking intervals, it withstands a peak load of 10.0 kW for six seconds, giving the drive system headroom for emergency or high-inertia stops. Electrical opposition to current flow is fixed at 56 Ω; this value, together with the DC link voltage, sets the braking current and the heat produced. The assembly is intended for a 400 V voltage class, aligning it with common three-phase supply networks and matching KEB inverters of the same category. A single thermal module is used, indicated by the 1 module count, which simplifies wiring and mounting while concentrating the heat source in one enclosure.

Mechanical dimensions of 63 mm in width, 96 mm in depth, and 370 mm in height allow the resistor to fit alongside drives inside a control cabinet without obstructing airflow. Power enters through screw terminals sized for 12 AWG / 4 mm² conductors, and the internal core uses the same cross-section to keep conductor temperature uniform. This geometry, combined with forced or natural convection around the aluminum housing, provides a consistent surface for heat exchange so that the continuous and peak ratings are maintained during repetitive braking cycles.
