{"product_id":"vw3a7738","title":"VW3A7738 Schneider Electric","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis Schneider Electric braking resistor, part of the VW3A series, is engineered to dissipate excess energy generated during motor deceleration. It features a resistance value of 1.4 ohms and a power rating of 1.5 kW, making it suitable for applications requiring controlled energy dissipation in variable speed drive systems. The IP23 enclosure provides protection against solid objects larger than 12.5 mm and water spray at an angle up to 60 degrees from the vertical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries:\u003c\/strong\u003e VW3A\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eResistance:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.4 Ohms\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePower Rating:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.5 kW\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnclosure Protection:\u003c\/strong\u003e IP23\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFunction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Energy dissipation for motor braking\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Designed for use with compatible Schneider Electric variable speed drives.
