Overview
The ABB P14494-31 braking resistor is a 35Ω, 300W resistor designed for energy dissipation in low voltage drive applications. This resistor is housed in a GCE1 enclosure, measuring 12 inches wide, 5 inches deep, and 5 inches high, with a weight of 7 lbs. Its compact design makes it ideal for installations where space is limited. The 35Ω resistance and 300W power rating are critical for matching with variable frequency drives to manage regenerative energy and prevent overvoltage conditions. The GCE1 enclosure provides protection and facilitates secure mounting. This component is essential for applications requiring controlled deceleration and energy management in industrial automation systems, including conveyor systems, pumps, and fans. Proper sizing ensures compatibility with ABB low voltage drives and protects connected machinery from voltage spikes during braking operations.

FMK-A-R2
R2 Flange Mounting Kit for the ACS550 drives allows mounting the drive with the heatsink external to a 3rd party enclosure. Use of the flange kit requires removal of the drive cover, reducing protection to IP00. R1 through R4 flange kits can be used with 3rd party UL Type 1 & 12 (NEMA 1 & 12) enclosures.
