Power resistors

Ballast and brake resistors  

We install our power resistors on ships and platforms where regenerative electric power cannot be returned to the mains, or only with great difficulty.   A power resistor is an essential part of the electrical system. We pay a great deal of attention to the choice of materials (high-quality stainless steel for maritime applications) and to the environmental conditions. The resistors are carefully sized according to the cycle used to return the energy.

REMAT supplies standard and forced-cooled resistors, make Resistel,  up to a continuous power of approximately 2000 kW.

We have used the latest developments in the field of water-cooled resistors specifically for offshore applications. We recently introduced an entirely new concept of modular water-cooled power resistance for offshore applications; compact, low-maintenance and highly suited to the harsh offshore environment.

Water-cooled resistors

We have used the latest developments in the field of water-cooled resistors specifically for offshore applications. We recently introduced an entirely new concept of modular water-cooled power resistor for offshore applications; compact, low-maintenance and highly suited to the harsh offshore environment.

Starting resistors

REMAT has a huge amount of experience with series resistors in the rotor circuit of slip ring motors. An example of this is the bow thruster, whereby the resistor influences the slip of the motor, and thus the rotational speed of the propeller.
