  • For applications that cause significant regenerated energy (e.g., vertical axes, and inertial loads decelerated quickly), the regenerated energy shunt can be used to monitor and manage your motor's regenerative energy. It provides up to 250W of continuous energy dissipation. For additional information on how to operate the RES-225, when to use it, as well as wiring and installation instructions, refer to the user manual: AC Input, Integral Horsepower ClearPath Motors.
  • The blower kit (AC powered fan and shroud) provides a significant increase in continuous torque for certain AC-input ClearPath motors (ClearPath part numbers with “_Fan” show the increased capability).
