The Schneider VW3SKR014W06023B is a braking resistor rated at 14 Ohm with 6000 W continuous power dissipation, housed in an IP23 enclosure. The 14 Ohm value determines the peak braking torque it can absorb from the DC bus — lower ohms pull more current and brake harder, so this unit is sized for applications where the drive's internal resistor isn't enough for the deceleration profile or duty cycle. The 6 kW continuous rating means it can shed that heat indefinitely, not just in short bursts, which matters for high-inertia loads like centrifuges or unwinders that brake repeatedly.
No successor code has been issued, so the VW3SKR014W06023B is the resistor to specify for new builds and BOM lines that call for a 14 Ohm / 6 kW braking resistor in an IP23 package.
Mount it where the enclosure's ventilation slots stay clear of debris; the resistor gets hot during braking cycles, so maintain clearance to adjacent components per the mounting instructions.
