Overtemperature

Note

Ensure adequate ventilation

The housing surface may reach a temperature of over 200 °C. Always make sure that the brake resistor is adequately ventilated.

If this is ignored, the brake resistor and surrounding components may be destroyed.

Overtemperature 1:

Position

Explanation

x

Continuous power in % of the type power

y

Overtemperature in K

1

Normal operating range

2

Permitted operating range

3

Inadmissible operating range

4

At resistor element

5

At the housing surface

An application may require a higher continuous power than the specified type power. You can implement this state if a higher temperature of the brake resistor is permissible.
