KEY FEATURES
STAINLESS STEEL MOUNTING TERMINALS
FOR DIRECT MOUNTING ON CAPACITORS
ATTRACTIVELY PRICED
PREMIUM QUALITY RESISTIVE WIRES
FLAMEPR OOF SILICONE CO A TING
The YP series resistors are coated with multilayer silicone
to give an excellent pr otection to the resistance wir e fr om
a temperature of -55°C to 350°C. The terminals are
designed for quick and easy mounting on capacitors and
ha v e a mounting pitch of 22.2 and 31.8 mm.
These are wirewound ceramic core resistor s designed for
voltage balancing of series connected aluminium
electrolytic capacitors. These resistors are also suitable for
capacitor voltage discharge safety applications in high voltage
circuits. Ideally suited for industrial grade capacitors.
