Type series GLAD / GMAD x34 /x13

Short-circuit proof wirewound flat resistor, degree of protection IP 40 in blank aluminium enclosure. Design with 2 PTRadox-wires, AWG 18/19 (0,82 mm²), 0,5 m long. There are 4 versions available: horizontal – type series GLAD vertical – type series GMAD
Features

  • very compact construction form in rectangle profile with rib-shaped cooling
  • short-circuit proof
  • self-extinguishing
  • degree of protection IP 40
  • higher continuous dissipation by direct mounting on heat sink or cooling surface
Application examples
An important application is the use as braking resistor for motor/generator drive of motors with frequency converters. Because of their degree of protection the resistors can perfectly be integrated into frequency converters or switch cabinets.
Options
By direct mounting on an appropriate cooling surface or onto a heat sink the continuous dissipation can be increased resp. the surface temperature can be lowered. Typical factors for an increase are 1,5 up to 5, depending on type, ventilation and size of the cooling surface or heat sink.
