The MODULOHM M-K-8-and M-KS-8 metal low ohm
resistors series are produced from a suitable alloy in
form of a non-insulated band or wire. The resistor
element is embedded in a steatite case with a special
cement to produce a very rugged construction with
highly stable electrical and mechanical properties. Spot
welded terminals made of hot tinned copper or nickel
silver ensure a good solderability and high stable
contacts. They have low induction and can be used in
commercial as well as in industrial equipment.
Applications:
These resistors are mainly used as current censors in
switching and linear power supplies, instruments,
regulators and other current sensing circuits.
The dissipation of the resistors allow measuring 100 mV
over the resistor making the series cover the area from
0,63 A to 15 A. The MODULOHM resistors are
produced in EU making it possible to offer our
customers a high de of flexibility. Customer specified
versions are possible.
