Magnetek’s Dynamic Braking Units help dissipate regenerative energy from the motor. This is useful in applications that require sudden deceleration and frequent stops and it allows for shorter deceleration times in applications running heavy loads.
The full line of CDBR-D Dynamic Braking Units is now available. The new units reduce enclosure and panel costs and increase catwalk space on cranes with advanced features including:
Short circuit protection with an independent fault output
Up to a 40% smaller footprint than previous generation CDBR-B units
Additional diagnostic LEDs
60°C ambient operating temperature rating
Additional voltage threshold settings available
Magnetek’s CDBR Dynamic Braking Units help dissipate regenerative energy from the motor. This is useful in applications that require sudden deceleration and frequent stops and it allows for shorter deceleration times in applications running heavy loads.
Dynamic braking allows for controlled deceleration and regeneration cycles that reduce wear on the mechanical brakes. Regenerative energy flows away from the motor and control system and is dissipated through resistors
