Compact liquid-cooled braking resistors for light rail and trams (CBW)
Danotherm CBW liquid-cooled resistors deliver compact high-energy absorption for rail applications with high average power or pulse loads. In light rail and tram braking systems, the liquid-cooled design saves space compared with air-cooled alternatives and can enable regenerated braking heat to pre-heat driver or passenger compartments.
Key benefits
- Small dimensions versus air-cooled types
- High pulse-load capability
- High vibration withstand capability
- Optional thermal switch or PT100 sensor
- Customized cable shoe connectors or DIN-rail terminals
- Regenerated heat can be reused for compartment heating
