Kendrion BEG-262-555-01 Brake Motor Rectifier

The Kendrion BEG-262-555-01 Brake Motor Rectifier is a 6-pole half-wave rectifier that converts AC power up to 555 VAC into DC to energize electromagnetic spring‑applied brakes and clutches in industrial equipment. Designed for vertical mounting, it is commonly used in electric brake motors, geared motors, conveyors, cranes, hoists, and packaging machinery where automation equipment and system integrators need reliable brake control from an AC source. Key specs include a 40–60 Hz input range of 0–555 VAC, a DC output of 0.45 × input voltage, and a maximum output current of 0.75 A, with screw-terminal connections for straightforward wiring. The unit supports continuous-duty industrial brake control and offers integrated overvoltage protection with input/output varistors plus a DC-side spark suppressor, protected under UL certification. Operating temperature ranges from -20°C to +80°C (operation) and -40°C to +80°C (storage). This rectifier is suitable for replacement of failed brake control modules, preventive maintenance, and restoration of reliable brake operation in braking systems for industrial production equipment. Common replacements include Kendrion BEG-261-555-01, Kendrion BEG-262-460-01, and INTORQ BEG-262-555-01 6-Pole Half-Wave Brake Rectifier.
