(3) Regenerative Resistance Unit (Model REU-1)
When the actuator is operating, the motor (drive unit) uses supplied electric energy to rotate. On the
contrary, when it decelerates, the motor acts as an electric generator that supplies current back to the
controller. This is called a regenerative current.
In the case of a vertical application, a large regenerative current will flow into the controller at descending.
P-Driver has a built-in regenerative resistance, but in the case of vertical applications, an additional
regenerative resistance unit is required, which is sold separately.
