Flat-type resistors have internal thermal protection (fuse cannot be replaced) that in-
terrupts the current circuit in the event of overload. Additional components for thermal
monitoring are not necessary. The following figure shows an example of a size 1 brak-
ing resistor:

4.2.2 Minimum clearance
Calculate the mounting surfaces, the touch guard and the clearance according to the
high surface temperature. Observe a minimum clearance of 30 mm. Refer to the in-
struction leaflet supplied with the corresponding braking resistor for the required min-
imum clearance dimensions.
