Series 800 and 1000 Tubular Resistors Product Information

Product catalog summary
Product Overview: The Series 800 and 1000 Tubular Non-Inductive Bulk Ceramic Resistors are designed for high peak power or high-energy pulse applications. Their bulk construction ensures non-inductive properties and uniform energy distribution, eliminating the risk of film or wire failure. These resistors are available in various sizes and terminations, capable of handling up to 1000 watts, 165 kJ, and 165 kV, with resistance values ranging from 1 ohm to 1 megohm.
Types of Resistors:
  • Type SP: Suitable for high operating temperatures up to 350°C, ideal for use in oil without an oil-resistant coating.
  • Type AS: Best for high energy and voltage pulse applications, with a maximum operating temperature of 230°C. It comes with a standard dielectric coating for air use and an oil-resistant coating for oil use.
  • Type A: High-power non-inductive resistor for applications requiring high resistance.
Applications: These resistors are used in various applications, including motor drive circuits, snubber circuits, high-frequency circuits, RF dummy loads, dynamic braking, transformer protection, harmonic filters, impulse generators, high-voltage circuits, X-ray equipment, high voltage power supplies, laser/imaging equipment, and capacitor charge/discharge systems.
Ordering Information: The part numbering system includes construction type, resistance value, resistance tolerance, and terminal end options. For example, the part number 890AS101KDS indicates a Type AS resistor with a resistance of 100 ohms, a tolerance of +10%, and standard dielectric coating with silver metalized ends.
Electrical Specifications: The resistors are available in various dimensions and electrical specifications, including resistance range, average power at 40°C, peak energy, and peak voltage. The specifications vary based on the resistor type and size.
Termination Metals: Electrical connections are made using metal end bands, with aluminum for Type SP, silver for Type AS, and nickel for Type A. Special terminations with brass, copper, or soldered ends are also available.
Mounting and Accessories: Mounting clips and aluminum connector caps are available for secure installation. Dimensions and specifications for these accessories are provided.
Performance Characteristics: The resistors have specific operating temperature ranges, resistance temperature coefficients, voltage coefficients, and performance under short time overload, load life, thermal shock, and moisture resistance conditions.
Disclaimer: The document provides general recommendations and does not guarantee specific performance in individual applications. Users are responsible for verifying the applicability of the products for their specific needs.

Series 800 and 1000 Tubular Non-Inductive Bulk Ceramic Resistors provide excellent performance for high peak power or high-energy pulses. Bulk construction advantageously produces an inherently non-inductive resistor; and it allows energy and power to be uniformly distributed through the entire ceramic resistor body - there is no film or wire to fail. We offer a full line of rugged, reliable ceramic resistors. We offer three distinctly different ceramic materials to afford the designer with unique components to meet the most demanding requirements: Type SP resistors are composed of materials...
