UL approval extended to 2800W power resistors

The 1600W - 2800W versions of the IRV series power resistors have just received UL approval. This now extends the availability of UL approval on this range of power resistors from 60W right through to 2800W.

The IRV1600-2800 models are very high power, wire wound, metal clad resistors.

The resistor elements of these models are fully encased in an extruded aluminium housing which provides strong and rugged protection.

Standard options for this resistor series include flying leads or tab terminals and inductive or non-inductive windings. Custom options include: Flying lead terminations, internal thermostats and customer part number marking.

The most common applications for these models are: motor drive braking, high power snubber applications and power sources for industrial equipment.

These models are fully RoHS compliant.
