The Siemens 6SE6400-4BD12-0BA0 is a robust braking resistor designed to enhance the performance of inverter drives within industrial automation systems. This component is part of the esteemed Simovert family and is engineered to work seamlessly with MICROMASTER 4 series drives. With a resistance value of 160 ohms and the capability to handle a peak power of 4000 watts and a continuous power of 200 watts, it is an essential part for managing the deceleration of motor-driven applications.

The braking resistor operates effectively within a voltage range of 380 to 480 volts, making it versatile for various electrical setups. Its compact dimensions, 239 x 149 x 43.5 mm (height x width x depth), ensure that it can be integrated into systems where space is at a premium without compromising performance. The IP20 rating of the resistor indicates that it is designed for installation in environments where protection against solid objects is necessary, but it is not rated for protection against water ingress.

This part is characterised by its reliability and durability, which are critical for maintaining the efficiency and longevity of drive systems in demanding industrial settings. It is particularly suitable for applications that require precise control over the stopping and starting of motors, such as conveyor belts, lifts, and machining equipment. The Siemens 6SE6400-4BD12-0BA0 is a testament to quality engineering, providing a solution that ensures smooth operation and safety in industrial automation.

What is the voltage rating for this braking resistor?

The braking resistor is rated for a voltage range of 380-480 V.

What is the resistance value of this braking resistor?

This braking resistor has a resistance value of 160 ohms.

Can you specify the power rating for this component?

Certainly, the braking resistor has a peak power rating of 4000W and a continuous power rating of 200W.

What are the dimensions of this braking resistor?

The dimensions of the braking resistor are 239 x 149 x 43.5 mm (Height x Width x Depth).

What is the IP rating of this braking resistor?

This braking resistor has an IP20 rating, indicating it is protected against solid objects larger than 12.5 mm but not against water.

Is this braking resistor suitable for all MICROMASTER 4 drive systems?

While it is compatible with MICROMASTER 4 drive systems, it's important to check the specific requirements of your drive system to ensure compatibility.

How does a braking resistor enhance the performance of a drive system?

A braking resistor dissipates excess energy as heat, allowing for quicker deceleration of the motor and improved control during stopping or when dynamic braking is needed.

What type of applications typically use this braking resistor?

This braking resistor is commonly used in applications requiring rapid deceleration of motor loads, such as conveyors, elevators, and other machinery with high inertial loads.

How should this braking resistor be installed?

Installation should be carried out in accordance with the drive system's manual, ensuring proper ventilation for heat dissipation and adherence to safety standards.

What is the purpose of the IP20 rating on this braking resistor?

The IP20 rating indicates that the braking resistor is protected against touch by fingers and objects greater than 12.5 mm, but it is not protected against liquids. It should be installed in a dry environment.

  • Dissipating excess energy generated during motor deceleration in variable speed drive systems
  • Protecting inverter drives from voltage spikes by providing a controlled path for excess voltage
  • Enhancing the braking capabilities of AC motor drives in applications such as conveyors, hoists, and elevators
  • Extending the lifespan of drive components by reducing thermal stress during frequent start-stop operations
  • Utilised in dynamic braking systems for industrial automation and control applications
  • Improving the stopping precision of machinery in manufacturing processes
  • Assisting in the regulation of speed in applications with high inertial loads
  • Providing a cost-effective solution for heat management in motor control systems
