Resistencias Ceramicas Series 500AS (NON-INDUCTIVE BULK CERAMIC SLAB RESISTORS SERIES 500AS)

Type 500AS non-inductive slab resistors

The type 500AS series of slab resistors provide excellent high voltage pulse and energy capability for applications where extra voltage and energy capability are required. Typical applications for 500AS slab resistors are:

  • High voltage power supply resistors
  • High energy capacitor charge/discharge resistors
  • Pulse test equipment resistors
  • Radar/broadcast transmitter resistors
  • Laser/imaging equipment resistors
