• These wirewound resistor units feature an open
helical wire element (made from Nichrome or stainless steel
resistive alloy) wound around a grooved porcelain core.
Stainless steel terminals and hardware are standard.
• This type of open element will take considerably
more overload than enameled type resistors and also cools
much quicker as each turn of the wire is exposed to the
cool ambient air.
• Fixed or adjustable taps are available
• Used for low current industrial applications up
to 27 amps continuous with resistance ratings up to 400
ohms.
• Industry standard size allows for easy drop-in replacement
of other brands including Cutler-Hammer (Type-L), and Post
Glover (Type LC).
• Heavy-duty construction allows even higher ratings
for intermittent duty applications such as dynamic braking
of variable speed drives or motor starting.
