Description

The SEW EURODRIVE 17983894 is a braking resistor designed for use with SEW EURODRIVE variable frequency drives (VFDs) and servo drives. This specific model, identified as the BW012-024, is engineered to dissipate excess energy generated during regenerative braking operations, preventing overvoltage conditions within the drive system. Its robust construction ensures reliable performance in demanding industrial environments, making it a critical component for applications requiring precise speed control and frequent deceleration.

Technical details

Series: BW Braking Resistor
Model Designation: BW012-024
Resistance Value: 12 Ohms (derived from "012" in part number)
Power Rating: 2400 Watts (derived from "024" in part number, representing 24 x 100W units or a direct 2.4kW rating)
Voltage Compatibility: Designed for use with SEW EURODRIVE drive systems; specific voltage class should be verified against drive datasheet.
Construction: Typically features a robust, industrial-grade resistive element mounted within a protective enclosure.
Function: Dissipates excess energy generated during regenerative braking to maintain drive system stability.
Connection Type: Terminal block connections for integration into drive control cabinets.

Applications & compatibility

This SEW EURODRIVE braking resistor is essential for applications where frequent braking or deceleration is required, such as in elevator systems, crane and hoist operations, automated storage and retrieval systems (AS/RS), and high-cycle packaging machinery. It ensures the safe and efficient operation of SEW EURODRIVE VFDs and servo drives by managing braking energy, thereby protecting the drive components and maintaining process continuity.
