Kollmorgen VT006-050-0-RM

Product Name:​ VT-Series Dynamic Brake / Regen Resistor Module (VT006 frame)
Product Introduction:​ External braking resistor assembly for shunting regenerative energy from DC bus during deceleration. Prevents over-voltage faults on AKD/S700 drives.

Detailed content

Technical Specifications:
  • Resistor Value: 50 Ω nominal (VT006-050 designation)
  • Power Rating: matched to mid-range AKD 3 A / 6 A class (typically 200–500 W continuous, higher peak)
  • Construction: aluminium housed wirewound or metal-oxide element
  • Mounting: DIN clip or panel, isolated bracket
  • Cable Entry: RM = right-angle molded motor-style connector or fly-lead variant
    Functional Features:​ Clamps DC bus through drive’s internal chopper transistor; parameterized as REGEN.OHM and REGEN.WATT in AKD.
    Application Scenarios:​ Vertical axes, frequent start-stop, overhauling loads, press feeds.
    Installation Requirements:​ Place outside sealed enclosure or with forced air; keep away from heat-sensitive devices; use screened cable if long run.
    Usage Notes:​ Duty cycle must be calculated from average braking power, not peak; undersizing causes resistor burnout.
