GENERAL

   
 

The RT / RL series of non inductive, ceramic composite resistors are ideal for circuitry associated with surges, high peak power or high energy, replacing carbon composition resistors which can be difficult to source.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 

They offer enhanced performance in high voltage power supplies, R-C snubber circuits and inrush limiters.

In pulsed applications, these compact resistors distribute the energy uniformly throughout their structure, resulting in low thermal stress. The result is increased reliability, and in many cases reduced size, compared to wire or film types.

 

The solvent-resistant epoxy coating allows operation in almost any environment, and the choice of axial or radial lead construction offers convenient use.
