630 kW braking resistor module for Altivar Process Modular drives
The APMBC0C63Y6 is a braking resistor module in the Altivar Process Modular family, sized for a single drive at 630 kW across a 500...690 V supply range. It is listed as current-production (active lifecycle), so no end-of-life or last-time-buy pressure for a BOM freeze.
Cabinet integration: UL Type 1 and Type 12, IP00 chassis
The module carries UL Type 1 and UL Type 12 ratings per UL 61800-5-1 for cabinet integration — Type 12 gives some dust and drip protection inside the enclosure, Type 1 is basic finger-probe protection. The IP00 rating (IEC 61800-5-1 / 60529) means the chassis itself is open; the IP21 or IP54 protection comes from the cabinet you mount it in. Physical footprint is 750 mm wide by 700 mm high by 1360 mm deep — that is a floor-standing cabinet section, not a DIN-rail module. Plan the enclosure floor space and lifting gear accordingly.
Sourcing and compliance documentation
No official successor or cross-reference exists — this is the current braking module for the Altivar Process Modular range at this power level.
