ABB BCU-12
The ABB BCU-12 is a compact and efficient brake chopper unit designed for seamless integration with ABB ACS800 series industrial drives. This unit is essential for applications requiring rapid deceleration or handling high inertia loads. It manages the regenerative energy generated by the motor during braking, dissipating it as heat through an external braking resistor. By doing so, the BCU-12 prevents the drive’s DC link voltage from rising to a level that would cause an overvoltage fault, ensuring smooth, reliable, and continuous operation of your machinery. Its internal mounting design for R2-R4 frame sizes saves valuable cabinet space and simplifies installation.
