MATERIAL SPECIFICATIONS
Element: Metal alloy
Core: Alkaline earth porcelain
FEATURES
•HVW and MVW are uncoated; HVX (blue
flameproof coating) available on request
•High voltage (up to 15 kV)
•Semi-precision: ± 5 %, ± 10 %, ± 20 %
•Axial leads: HVW, HVX = Tinned copper
MVW = Copper clad steel
•Lead (Pb)-free version is RoHS compliant
•Compliant to RoHS directive 2002/95/EC
Notes
(1) All resistance values are calibrated at 100 VDC. Calibration at other voltages upon request.
(2) Continuous working voltage shall be or maximum working voltage, whichever is less.
Notes
(1) MVW products do not contain lead. Use tin/lead packaging codes to specify these lead free MVW products. Use lead (Pb)-free packaging
codes to specify lead (Pb)-free HVW and HVX products.
(2) Some packaging codes are model specific
* Pb containing terminations are not RoHS compliant, exemptions may apply
