CHARACTERISTICS
TAP600 Series
600 Watt Heat Sinkable Planar
Resistance Values 0.25Ω to 100KΩ
Resistance Tolerance ±10% Std., 5% available on request.
Temperature Coefficient ±150ppm/°C (others upon request)
Maximum Working Voltage 5,000V DC, higher voltage on request, not
exceeding max. power
Power Rating 600W at 70°C heat sink temperature or
85°C bottom case temperature. This value
is only valid by using a thermal conduction
to the heat sink Rth -cs<0.025°C/W.
The value can be reached by using thermal
transfer compound with a heat conductivity
of 1w/mk. The flatness of the cooling plate
must be better than 0.05mm overall. The
roughness of the surface should not exceed
6.4µm.
Dielectric Strength Voltage 6k Vrms, 50Hz, 1min standard; up to 12k
Vrms available
Single Shot Voltage Up to 12KV Normwave (1.5/50 µsec)
Insulation Resistance 10GΩ min. at 500V
Creeping Distance 42mm min.
Air Distance 14mm min.
Inductance ≤80nH
Capacitance/Mass ≤110pF
Capacitance/Parallel ≤40pF
Operation Temperature -55°C to +150°C
Max. Torque for Contacts 2 Nm
Max. Torque for Mounting 1.8 Nm
Derating (thermal resist.) 8.73W/°C (0.115°C/W)

Ohmite’s TAP600 delivers 600
watts of reliable power to a
variety of power conditioning,
power transmission, and power
control applications. These resis-
tors can be designed for liquid
or air cooled heat sink systems.
Applications include variable
speed drives, power supplies,
robotics, motor control, and other
control devices.
FEATURES
Dielectric Strength up to 12KV
Special Design for Low Inductance and
Capacitance Values
Contacts allow for easy load connec-
tion with M5 screws (not included)
available with M4 as special request.
Thread depth 7mm
Encapsulated with a special resin filled
epoxy casing with a large creepage
distance to mass, large air distance
between terminals, and a high insula-
tion resistance (CTI 600).
Materials meet the requirements of
UL94-V0

THIS PRODUCT IS DESIGNED FOR
USE WITH PROPER HEATSINKING.
Maximum base plate temperature of the resistor must
be monitored and kept within specified limits to es-
tablish the power rating. Best technique is to attach a
thermocouple to the side of the base plate of the resis-
tor. Temperature of plastic housing or heat sink cannot
be used to establish rating of the resistor.
