CAN'T FIND THE PART TO MATCH YOUR SPECS?

Then let PRC custom manufacture your wire wound resistor, sensor, or shunt with some of the shortest lead times in the industry. Engineering samples can be supplied at no cost to you in 7-10 days for most jobs. Computer tracking charts are available for reference with certain part types. If you need a specific marking on your part(s) we will custom print your order with the marking you desire & at no additional cost to you. If needed, you can interchange the size, shape, lead dimension, wattage, voltage, current, Ω value, tolerance, & TCR characteristics with most part types. Visit our Ultra-Precision RX Series & see if one of our other parts from the same series will satisfy all your requirements. If you still do not find a part that meets the exact specifications your application requires, simply follow the link Contact/Request For Quote & fill in all known spec fields. One of our highly trained engineers will review your objectives and see if we can modify one of our standard parts to satisfy all your requirements. If you are unsure how to accurately complete this form, give us a call & someone from our sales department will be more than happy to assist you.

RX Series Engineering Attributes:

RESISTANCE & TOLERANCES
You can select any Ohmic value or decimal part of an Ohm with tolerances to ±.005%. 10Ω minimum resistance for ±.01% tolerance. See figure #2 shown below.
TCR CHARACTERISTIC
Standard:
100Ω & higher values: 0±5 ppm/°C.
For values below 100Ω: 0±15ppm/°C.
Special:
100Ω & higher: 0±1 ppm/°C. matching to 0±.5 ppm/°C.
Please specify temperature span of operation. The TCR is calculated between +25°C. & +100°C.
POWER VS. AMBIENT TEMPERATURE
All Ultra Precision Resistors are designed for full load based upon ±1% resistance tolerance providing the ambient temperature (+) plus the rise in temperature due to self-heating, does not exceed +125°C. Derated to zero power @ +145°C., See figure #1 shown below.
STABILITY
To ±.001%/yr. @ +25°C. with no Load.
REDUCTION OF THERMAL EMF USING COPPER TERMINALS:
Less than ±3 microvolts/°C. emitted.
INDUCTANCE
Standard parts in this series are inductively wound. Non-inductive balanced reverse pi windings are available, simply add suffix letter "N" to the part # when placing your order.
PROTECTIVE SEAL
Features a stress free base coat as well as an epoxy casing that is resistant to solder heat & solvents.
MARKING
PRC stamp, part type & name, Ω value & tolerance, physical size permitting.
