Our Aluminum housed brake
resistors are designed for high
power and provide great stabil-
ity. These resistors are con-
structed using wirewound on
ceramic cores and isolated using
a mica sheet for high dielectric
properties. The aluminum house
is filled with a high thermal con-
ductivity material to ensure quick
heat dissipation during contin-
ues applications. With the ability
to have a thermal cut off switch
embedded inside the aluminum
housing, makes the BA series
ideal for any safety application.
