Lenze ERBM100R150 Brake Resistor

The brake resistor, also known as a deceleration resistor, braking resistor, or braking element, from Lenze with type number ERBM100R150 is a mechanical attachment part for controlling braking processes. It has the dimensions 27 x 12 x 10 cm and a weight of 0.7 kg. Brake resistors convert the excess energy generated during the braking of electric motors into heat, thus preventing overvoltage in the DC link. This is essential for stable and safe operation in dynamic applications. Typical applications can be found in hoists, conveyor systems, machine tools, and robotics, where fast and precise braking operations are required.
