Product catalog summary
Active Energy Management Devices
  • These devices are designed to enhance productivity by recovering braking energy, bypassing power failures, and compensating for voltage dips.
  • They help reduce load peaks, protect power quality, and increase energy efficiency.
  • Features include controlled stops during power failures, mains-independent operation, and no heat generation from braking energy.
  • The system is modular, allowing for individual design and excellent fieldbus integration.
Safe Brake Resistors
  • Available in wire-wound and PTC technology, these resistors ensure safe reduction and rapid dissipation of braking energy.
  • Single module series BWx offers IP65 protection with power ratings up to 400 W and peak power up to 12 kW at 1% duty cycle.
  • Product series PxTFX and PxTRX provide various configurations with different current and voltage ratings, offering storage capabilities with electrolytic and double-layer capacitors.
Company Overview
  • Michael Koch GmbH is located in Ubstadt-Weiher, Germany, employing over 60 people and focusing on sustainable business practices.
  • The company is certified under EMAS III for environmental management and DIN EN ISO 9001:2015 for quality management.
  • They are committed to social responsibility, offering apprenticeships and engaging in community activities.
  • Communication is maintained through classical and social media channels.
