Powr-Rib® Edgewound
Edgewound and Round Wire
Designed in both Edgewound
and Round Wire formats,
these rugged resistors
can handle 700 to 1000
Watts of power. Specify our
Edgewound design for very
low resistance and high power
capacity. When higher resistance with lower power capacity is required use our Round
Wire design.
Constructed of a heavy
resistance alloy mounted on
ceramic insulators and supported by a metal mounting
bracket. Metal parts, except
for the resistance element,
are heavily plated to prevent
oxidation at high operating
temperatures and to prevent
corrosion. The mounting bar is
slotted on each end to facilitate installation. Edgewound
units provide clamp-type terminals, permitting a reliable connection which can be moved
along the resistive element to
obtain intermediate values.
All values for reference only; Consult factory for details.
