Construction
Type SQ Series
This flexible range of Power Wirewound
Resistors either have wire or power
oxide film elements. The SQ series
resistors are wound or deposited
on a fine non- alkali ceramic core then
embodied in a ceramic case and
sealed with an inorganic silica filler.
This design provides a resistor with
high insulation resistance, low surface
temperature, excellent T.C.R., and
entirely fire proof construction. These
resistors are ideally suited to a range of
areas where low cost, and efficient
thermal performance are important
design criteria. Metal film cores
adjusted by laser spiral are used where
the resistor value is above that suited
to wire. Similar performance is
obtained although short time overload
is slightly derated.
