Braking Resistors

Braking resistors are essential components used in variable frequency drive (VFD) systems to safely dissipate excess energy generated during motor deceleration. By converting regenerative braking energy into heat, these resistors protect drives from overvoltage conditions and improve overall system reliability. Our selection of braking resistors covers a wide range of power ratings and resistance values, making them ideal for demanding applications such as conveyors, cranes, lifts, and high-inertia machinery. Whether you’re managing heavy-duty industrial loads or fine-tuning dynamic braking performance, we offer rugged, compact, and thermally optimized resistor units from trusted brands — all designed to ensure long-term performance and safe drive operation.
