The VW3AP1123: Critical sourcing constraint: this braking unit cannot be ordered standalone. Per the condition of use, it is only available in combination with a standard enclosure. Verify your drive system cabinet and mounting arrangement before specifying — the IP23 plinth is integral to the assembly.
Designed for compact drive system integration within the ATV900 platform. The IP23 rating with plinth means it is intended for indoor installation where limited protection from falling dirt and dripping water is acceptable — typical for ventilated electrical rooms or dedicated drive cabinets. The size 1c form factor and 500 kW braking capacity target the larger end of the ATV900 range. Panel builders need to account for the braking unit's physical footprint and thermal dissipation within the enclosure — the plinth adds height for bottom cable entry and airflow.
As a braking unit accessory, it carries the same compliance documentation as the ATV900 drive family — confirm specific RoHS, REACH, and CE/UKCA declarations with the order documentation. The IP23 enclosure rating and plinth are part of the certified assembly.
