With more drive applications
utilising water as a cooling medium,
REO will be introducing a new range
of water cooled drive peripheral
components. In many instances the
use of water allows drive enclosure
sizes to be reduced and allows higher
ingress protection ratings for
challenging environments.

In many of these applications there
are requirements for braking resistors,
chokes and RFI filters. REO says in
the past the considerable losses
presented by these components have
compromised the efficiency and
success of the system as a whole. It
now offers water cooling for all of its
comp onents, allowing up to 95% of
the power losses in components such
as input and output chokes and brake
resistors to be transferred to the
cooling medium. Stand D1550
