RBA Assemblies An RBA Assembly includes a dynamic brake transistor and resistors completely
assembled and mounted in a NEMA 1 enclosure. They are designed for EO and MO
controls. Select the RBA based on the voltage rating of the control and the dynamic
brake watt capacity required. Use Table A-3 to select the RBA assembly. If more than
4,000 watts of brake capacity is required, use a combination of RTA (DB transistor) and
RGA (DB resistor) assemblies. Refer to Section 3 Optional Dynamic Brake Hardware
for wiring diagram.
