State-of-the-art rail-bound vehicles such as trains, metros and streetcars are equipped with three-phase motors whose acceleration, speed and braking are controlled and regulated by power electronics.<\/p>\n
When braking, the vehicle's kinetic energy is converted into electrical energy, fed back into the grid where possible and reused. However, this requires a grid that is capable of absorbing energy at all times, otherwise the grid voltage will simply rise and the braking effect will fail to materialize. Another method is to convert the braking energy into heat using a braking resistor.<\/p>\n
Resistors are used as<\/strong><\/p>\n Additional brake for regenerative braking, Electric braking is wear-free and can be optimally controlled so that there are no abrupt changes in braking deceleration that are perceived as unpleasant by the passenger.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div> Get in touch with us. We will prepare a customized offer for you.<\/p>\n Contact us<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div> As a leading manufacturer of resistors for industrial and transportation technology applications, we at GINO AG produce resistors from 50 watts to 360 megawatts.<\/p>\n In addition to various resistor systems, you will find a wide range of high-power resistors on our website that ensure the safe braking of rail-bound and other vehicles. Our resistors for transportation technology are subject to particularly high requirements in terms of operational safety, low maintenance, electrical and mechanical resilience and a long service life.<\/p>\n Our company places high demands on ourselves and the reliability of our products, which is why we offer reliable components and fair prices for high-performance resistors.<\/p>\n If you have any questions, please contact our GINO experts on 0228 98 98 6 - 0 or browse through our traffic engineering brochure.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div> Self-ventilated high-power resistors<\/strong><\/p>\n Self-ventilated power resistors are usually mounted on the outside of the vehicle, whereby in some cases the airstream can effectively support cooling.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div> braking resistors are supplied with cooling air by a fan so that mounting inside of the vehicle is also possible.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div> Among the resistors mounted on the outside of the vehicles, two types are available:<\/p>\n
