Universal Edgewound Power Resistor (EDGU),
Wirewound Resistors, Industrial Power
FEATURES
Universal Mount EDGU series are a direct
replacement for competitors’ products
Resistance-alloy ribbon wire is coiled on edge
and supported on specially designed porcelain
insulators
Open coil construction allows efficient heat
dissipation and easily accomodates reasonable overloads
and surges
Insulators provide proper turn-to-turn spacing and
insulation from support bars
Terminals are welded to the resistive wire for a reliable
electrical connection
•Wirewound
