For requirements beyond these values, resistor assemblies are used.
Every ohmic value can be supplied in the range of feasible values.
Wirewound resistors are constructed with :
• a winding of low temperature coefficient resistance wire – or corrugated tape – on a tubular ceramic core
• a coating – except on specific models – keeping the wires in place in high temperatures
• terminal connections (optionally adjustable) and mounting brackets
The standard RCA Series consists in 12 different models (RCA-1 to RCA-12) with different sizes and wattages.
“Ayrton-Perry” type windings (very low inductance) can be supplied for fixed or adjustable models.
RCA resistors can be fitted with various types of terminal connection, fixed or adjustable lugs, mounting brackets.
To choose an RCA model and its mechanical and electrical characteristics, use the technical documentation – downloaded from this page – or tell us your requirements: we will be happy to help you chose the best solution for your needs.
