{"product_id":"schneider-vw3a58736","title":"Schneider VW3A58736","description":"\u003cp\u003eDesigned for motor control applications requiring dynamic braking, the Schneider Electric VW3A58736 is a braking resistor specifically engineered for the Altivar 58 series of variable frequency drives. This component plays a critical role in dissipating excess kinetic energy generated during motor deceleration, thereby preventing overvoltage conditions and ensuring controlled stops. Its robust construction is built to withstand the demanding thermal loads associated with regenerative braking cycles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries Compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Altivar 58\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFunction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Braking Resistor\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnergy Dissipation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Manages kinetic energy during motor deceleration.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOvervoltage Protection:\u003c\/strong\u003e Prevents drive overvoltage faults during braking.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Designed for thermal load management in regenerative braking applications.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMounting:\u003c\/strong\u003e Typically designed for integration within the drive enclosure or adjacent to the drive.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eResistance Value:\u003c\/strong\u003e Specific resistance value should be verified against the Altivar 58 drive's manual for optimal performance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePower Rating:\u003c\/strong\u003e The power rating is application-dependent and determined by the drive's braking duty cycle; consult the drive's datasheet for recommended resistor specifications.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eApplications \u0026amp; compatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe VW3A58736 braking resistor is essential for Altivar 58 VFD installations where rapid or frequent deceleration is required. Common applications include packaging machinery, material handling systems, conveyor belts, and any industrial process involving loads that can generate significant back EMF during speed reduction. Proper integration ensures the longevity and reliable operation of the Altivar 58 drive in these dynamic environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAvailable from Industrial Automation Co as new, refurbished, or surplus stock, backed by a 2-year warranty with same-day shipping on in-stock items.
