Find the right resistor built specifically for use with your PE® VFD, and in heavy-duty applications.
Application Description | Is a Regeneration Resistor required? |
---|---|
Traverse Motion (E.g., Bridge, Trolley, Monorail, Conveyor) | YES. PE® drives 5HP and under include a built-in resistor (Class D). For applications with motor sizes over 5HP, or applications that require a higher rating higher than Class D, a separate travel resistor bank is required. Select the TRAVEL RESISTOR option below and use the tables found on that page to select the appropriate travel resistor model number. |
Hoist/Lifting Motion (WITH Mechanical Load Brake, or a locking worm gear). | In most applications, NO.* |
Hoist/Lifting Motion (WITHOUT a mechanical load brake) | YES. An appropriately-sized Hoist-Duty resistor bank is required. Select the NO-LOAD-BRAKE HOIST RESISTOR option below and use the tables found on that page to select the appropriate hoist resistor model number. |
