OverviewThe COMBIVERT R6 is a mains-driven power supply and regeneration unit designed for industrial applications. It provides an unregulated, mains-dependent DC voltage for centralized DC supply and enables energy-optimised compensation within a system or direct regeneration of excess energy back to the mains. The R6 family reduces or replaces braking resistors by returning generated energy to the grid and can feed several drives from a shared DC bus.
