Thank you for this description! If I were to reverse drive my motor (essentially use the VFD/motor as a brake, driving by another motor under test), would the resistor have to be sized for continuous use? I would only be holding a specific torque, not necessarilly decelerating.
The video should answer your question, Hariharan. The resistance is higher in the replacement you mentioned, so it should not damage the drive. But the power is lower and you have not said if that value is sufficient. You should contact a local KEB representative for more information before we can say it will be sufficient for your specific application.

this means today regeneration isn't mature enough, all that energy it's lost as heat trying to extract maximum of regeneration, at high regeneration there's progressive increase in loses which isn't far from ading brakes to the engine braking; probably that voltage it's huge at high speed having permanent magnets, probably it's decreased with negative stimulation of the rotor in order to reduce/neutralise the magnets - i don't know if works with that type of rotor
Yes. Braking resistors provide a reliable, but older way to dissipate excess energy in a system. Many applications are not conducive to regen technology and so uses braking resistors. We do offer regen drives, which put regenerated energy back on to the building power grid, saving money and energy. KEB has been a leader in regen drives for 20+ years, used in elevator, crane and hoist applications. Watch this video about regen: ruclips.net/video/IAnMVYOYHxg/видео.html
You can also watch these two videos showing how a regen works in an elevator application: ruclips.net/video/6Mo2xOOP0cw/видео.html ruclips.net/video/MQvGLL2NO2w/видео.html
Thank you for the explanation and tech manual and information!
great video , very educational. thank you for sharing your knowledge, god bless , more power and keep safe always sir.

Very very good
Thank you.
Kindly explain
Currently using 20 ohm +/- 10%, 570w, 600v breaking resistor
Can I possible to replace with 120 ohm, 105w, 600v

Can you use a braking resistor on a motor without a drive?
