The IMO B6BRC1N06-30-A is an industrial dynamic braking resistor designed to support compatible IMO variable frequency drives in motor-control applications. It provides a controlled path for dissipating regenerative electrical energy produced when a motor decelerates rapidly, helping the connected drive maintain stable DC-bus voltage.
When machinery slows down or stops, the motor can temporarily operate as a generator and return energy to the inverter. The B6BRC1N06-30-A converts this excess electrical energy into heat, helping reduce overvoltage trips and allowing shorter, more consistent stopping times in demanding automation systems.
Designed for integration into industrial control installations, this braking resistor is suitable for applications involving frequent acceleration, deceleration or high-inertia loads. Its dedicated IMO product configuration helps simplify the selection of a braking solution for compatible inverter-drive systems.
During rapid deceleration, rotating machinery can return electrical energy to the variable frequency drive. Without a suitable means of dissipating this energy, the inverter’s DC-bus voltage may rise and trigger an overvoltage alarm or protective shutdown.
The IMO B6BRC1N06-30-A works with a compatible braking circuit to convert regenerated energy into heat. This improves control over stopping cycles and makes the resistor particularly useful for conveyors, hoists, centrifuges and other machinery where reliable deceleration is essential.

It is used to dissipate regenerative electrical energy produced when an inverter-controlled motor decelerates, helping provide reliable dynamic braking.
The product reference indicates a nominal resistance of 30 ohms.
Yes. When correctly selected and connected to a compatible braking circuit, it helps prevent excessive DC-bus voltage during rapid motor deceleration.
Braking resistors are normally selected according to intermittent braking duty, cycle time and regenerated energy. The application must remain within the resistor and drive manufacturer’s permitted operating limits.
It should be securely installed in a well-ventilated industrial location with suitable clearance from heat-sensitive materials, following the applicable IMO installation guidance.
IMO braking components support machine builders, panel builders and automation engineers by providing dependable energy dissipation for controlled motor deceleration in industrial drive applications.{ "@context": "https://schema.org/", "@type": "Product", "name": "IMO B6BRC1N06-30-A Dynamic Braking Resistor 30 Ohm", "sku": "B6BRC1N06-30-A", "mpn": "B6BRC1N06-30-A", "brand": { "@type": "Brand", "name": "IMO" }, "category": "Dynamic Braking Resistors", "description": "IMO B6BRC1N06-30-A 30 ohm dynamic braking resistor designed to dissipate regenerative energy during motor deceleration in compatible industrial variable frequency drive systems.", "additionalProperty": [ { "@type": "PropertyValue", "name": "Resistance", "value": "30 ohm" }, { "@type": "PropertyValue", "name": "Product type", "value": "Dynamic braking resistor" }, { "@type": "PropertyValue", "name": "Function", "value": "Regenerative energy dissipation" }, { "@type": "PropertyValue", "name": "Application", "value": "Variable frequency drive braking" }, { "@type": "PropertyValue", "name": "Cooling method", "value": "Natural air cooling" } ] } { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "FAQPage", "inLanguage": "en-GB", "mainEntity": [ { "@type": "Question", "name": "What is the IMO B6BRC1N06-30-A used for?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "It is used to dissipate regenerative electrical energy produced when an inverter-controlled motor decelerates, helping provide reliable dynamic braking." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "What is the resistance of the B6BRC1N06-30-A?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "The product reference indicates a nominal resistance of 30 ohms." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "Can this braking resistor reduce drive overvoltage trips?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Yes.
