BRV - Compact resistor systems
BRV is the resistor box for the most demanding power requests.
Patented system for the highest thermal efficiency available, with a size reduced to 50% can overcome the present performance limits of medium-high power resistors. Very sophisticated, yet rugged, it can be employed as an high quality braking, test, safety or special resistor, for the most different applications, from occasional safety braking to continuous test banks, from high dynamic to precision test load.
The protection box is made with high quality materials and technical treatments that ensure long life and consistency also in difficult environment. It is carefully designed to house 3 to 5 layers of I.R.E. GHPR resistors.
Power and safety terminals are accessible from the bottom or from one side.
Rated characteristics refer to laboratory conditions, with the resistor laying horizontally on a flat surface with no obstruction of the inlet or outlet openings, inside a large free volume with standard ventilation conditions.
Poor positioning and exposure to direct sunlight can significantly reduce thermal performance.
