Automation Direct GS-43P0-BR Braking Resistor

GS-43P0-BR Braking Resistor is a compact, encapsulated 300W energy-dissipation device designed to absorb regenerative energy in AutomationDirect GS2/GS3 drive systems operating at 460V, helping to control deceleration of connected motors. It has a nominal resistance of 250 ohms and is built in an encapsulated form for durability within a control panel environment. The physical size is 215 mm in length, 200 mm in width, and 30 mm in height, with an approximate built-in weight of 750 g, making it suitable for panel mounting alongside the drive electronics. This braking resistor is part of AutomationDirect’s GS braking resistor family and is intended for braking-duty operation when used with GS2/GS3 drives, contributing to safer DC-bus voltage levels during deceleration. Note that AutomationDirect lists this model as a retired product in its catalog, so availability may vary and customers should verify current GS-series braking-resistor options for equivalent specifications and compatibility with their exact drive model and system voltage.
