Recommended braking resistors for ADrive models are shown below:
ADrive
Recommended Braking Resistor
Resistance (Ω) / Power (kW)
kW HP Type-A Type-B Type-C
5.5 7.5 50Ω / 1kW
7.5 10 50Ω / 1kW
11 15 40Ω / 1kW
15 20 25Ω / 2kW
22 30 18Ω / 3kW
37 50 10Ω / 6kW
Dangerous high voltage on the brake resistor connections and on the braking resistor
itself.
Braking resistor must be installed in a horizontal position for best heat dissipation
and must be fitted with its connecting bars.
Do not mount the braking resistor on the controller cabinet. While mounting, be
aware that excessive heat dissipated by the brake resistor may damage the control
panel, cause malfunctions or start a fire. The temperature of the break resistor
housing can attain 100°C during operation.
The brake resistor must be mounted in a dry location and must be fixed properly
against vibrations.
There must be minimum 30 cm of gap above and below the brake resistor to provide
air ventilation.
The capacity of brake resistors may increase due to the operating frequency of
elevator and maximum journey duration.
