Aluminium-Housed Braking Resistor
The Unique-Bargains braking resistor is a 200W, 100 ohm wirewound component built for industrial power control. Its aluminium housing and nylon-wrapped windings suit power supply, transducer and elevator circuits. The unit is sold new and includes ring terminals for direct connection.
200W 100 Ohm Rating
The single specification that determines fit is the 200W continuous rating at 100 ohms with a 5% tolerance. If your drive or controller calls for a different resistance value or a higher dissipation figure, this part will not match the circuit requirements.
Thermal and Electrical Behaviour
The aluminium case acts as the heatsink, so surface temperature rises with sustained load and the surrounding airflow must carry that heat away. No fan is fitted, so audible noise is limited to mechanical vibration from the windings. Cable length is 23cm and the unit weighs 436g.

Questions about this item
What does the 200 W rating mean once the resistor is installed in a machine?
It is the continuous power the resistor can dissipate as heat while braking a motor or load without exceeding its temperature limit.
What interface or standard does the 100 Ω value follow, and what does it cap in practice?
The 100 Ω resistance with 5 % tolerance sets the braking current level for a given DC bus voltage, limiting peak torque and voltage rise during deceleration.
What mounting holes and clearances does the aluminium housing need to fit?
Two mounting slots measuring 1 x 0.6 cm (0.393" x 0.236") on the 16.4 x 6 x 3 cm body accept M5 or M6 bolts for panel or chassis mounting.
