22kw HP 230 V Braking Module For Vfd · Delta Electronics VFDB2022
Brake unit for 230 V Delta VFD systems with a maximum motor capacity of 22 kW. Commonly used to dissipate regenerative energy during deceleration when paired with a suitable braking resistor, helping improve stopping control in industrial drive applications.
What this product is for
This braking module is used with compatible Delta variable frequency drive systems to handle regenerative energy during motor deceleration. It is intended for industrial machinery that needs controlled braking performance on 230 V drive systems.
Use for
Use for conveyors, process equipment, fans, pumps with high inertia, and other machinery where faster or more controlled stopping is required. It is designed to work with an external braking resistor in a matched drive system.
Avoid for
Avoid using this module as a standalone braking solution or without confirming drive compatibility, resistor value, and installation requirements. Do not use it where the drive manufacturer does not support an external brake unit for the application.
Best for
Best for Delta 230 V VFD installations up to 22 kW where regenerative braking energy needs to be dissipated safely and predictably. It suits maintenance replacements, panel builds, and drive retrofits in manufacturing and material handling environments.
Installed in
Typically installed in industrial control panels and machine electrical enclosures. Published dimensions for this brake unit family are approximately 121 x 200 x 130 mm (4.76 x 7.87 x 5.12 in), which helps with enclosure planning.
Why this product exists
When a motor decelerates, regenerative energy can return to the drive DC bus. This brake unit helps route that excess energy to a dedicated braking resistor so the system can slow loads more effectively and reduce nuisance overvoltage trips.
Compared with similar products
This model is a dedicated 230 V, 22 kW brake unit rather than a general control accessory. Source listings indicate compatibility with Delta 230 V series drives, and some distributor sources specifically reference C2000 and CP2000 series applications. Always confirm the exact drive family and resistor requirements before ordering.
Typical buying guidance: higher inertia loads or shorter deceleration times commonly require an external brake unit and correctly sized resistor. Actual braking performance depends on load inertia, deceleration settings, duty cycle, resistor selection, installation conditions, and local electrical code.
