Locomotive Products | Radial Resistors
Dayton-Phoenix is the OEM for radial resistors, which translates to a best-in-class part with life-cycle cost reductions for you. Our radial resistors will exceed maintenance overhaul schedules to provide years of field-proven reliability.
Dayton-Phoenix incorporates the latest design technologies in insulating materials and air flow/heat transfer advances in our radial resistors.
Other advantages of our radial resistors:
- Designed as exact replacement for most electric drive applications
- High strength, state-of-the-art insulation systems
- Develops lower back pressures on fans to improve air flow/heat transfer
- Compensates for poor air flows at edge of grid from hatch design
- Resistances to design requirements - tolerances of +/- 5% of nominal
- Power levels up to and exceeding 1 MW per resistor
- Custom designs available
