Product Description
As an integral component for optimizing servo drive performance, the AX2090-BW50-0300 external braking resistor from Beckhoff plays a vital energy management role. Designed for use with Beckhoff servo drives, this robust module continuously handles up to 6kW of braking energy to maximize motor control efficiency. When servo motion transitions from acceleration to deceleration, the resistor’s 250W internal resistance safely converts excess kinetic energy from the DC bus into heat. Forced air cooling along both sides of the resistor body ensures reliable dissipation to avoid potential overheating even during prolonged braking operation. A stable 705μF auxiliary capacitance further stabilizes voltage ripple on the DC link.
Seamless integration with servo drives occurs via the AX-Bridge module interface. It connects directly to the drives’ DC bus to instantly discharge brake energy when the threshold is exceeded. EtherCAT compatibility also enables closed-loop communication for synchronized braking control as part of larger multi-axis motion profiles. Installing within control cabinets in a protected DIN rail, the compact AX2090-BW50-0300 does not require additional ventilation space even when dissipating high wattages continuously. No external fan is needed, keeping noise levels low. Its slim 146mm depth and 9kg weight additionally save space in minimal footprints.
Engineered to Beckhoff quality standards, the resistor withstands shock, vibration, and moisture exposure on industrial factory floors. Compliance with CE, CULus, and EAC standards instills application safety assurance. In summary, the AX2090-BW50-0300 external braking resistor maximizes the performance of servo drive systems with durable high-power energy handling enabled by forced cooling. Automation machinery universally benefits from reduced component aging and smoother, more efficient motion profiles.
