Type HVR Series
Tyco Electronics is a leading
European supplier of high specifica-
tion power resistors for specialist
applications. The HVR range
consists of high power, high voltage
resistors capable of operating up to
50kV (continuous) and dissipating
50W in air or 100W oil. The thick film
resistor element is designed to
minimise inductance and capaci-
tance giving optimum performance
at MHz frequencies, and resistance
to high voltage surges.
The resistors are made from quality
materials for optimum reliability
and stability. Tyco Electronics can
test resistors to conform to
relevant international, MIL or
customer specifications.
Tyco Electronics is happy to
advise on the use of resistors for
pulse applications and to supply
information for high voltage use
and low-ohmic value, alternative
mountings and termination type.
