Kollmorgen D55001-00000000
Product Description:
The Kollmorgen part number D55001-00000000 most commonly references an external Dynamic Braking (Regenerative Discharge) Resistor Kit or Mounting Bracket/Accessory used with S700 or AKD drives for dissipating regenerated energy when a large inertial load decelerates. Exact resistance/power rating should be confirmed from the project BOM or Kollmorgen ordering code — D550xx series are often braking resistors or interface modules.
Detailed content
General Characteristics (Typical Braking Resistor Interpretation):
-
Function: Clamps DC bus when voltage exceeds threshold; dissipates regenerative energy as heat.
-
Mounting: DIN-rail or panel-mounted, separate from drive.
-
Connection: Two-wire to drive’s “BR+” / “BR−” terminals.
-
Enclosure: Metal housing with high-temp wire leads, often IP20.
-
Resistance Value: Commonly 50 Ω, 100 Ω, or 20 Ω depending on drive power — verify on nameplate.
-
Power Rating: Continuous 50–200 W; short-time peak several kW.
Installation Notes:
-
Mount in well-ventilated area — resistor gets hot during regeneration.
-
Keep wiring short and separate from low-voltage signal cables.
-
Ensure drive parameter for braking resistor is enabled and threshold set correctly.
If your system documentation shows D55001 as a different accessory (cable kit, MMC card, etc.), refer to the Kollmorgen S700/AKD options catalog — the “D55xxx” prefix is consistently used for drive option/accessory hardware.
