Case Resistors
Powerohm's Type CR Case Resistors can be used in any AC or DC power circuit. Units are most commonly used for light-duty braking of variable frequency drives, heating and any other low wattage load applications.

The Type CR resistors are suitable for intermittent and continuous duty applications requiring relatively high resistance and low wattage. The compact size of this unit makes it ideal for an installation where space is a premium. This unit can withstand extreme shock, qualifying it for nearly any high vibration application.

Smoothwound Resistor
Powerohm's Type SR & SXR Smoothwound Resistors can be used in any AC or DC power circuit. Units are most commonly used for light-duty braking of variable frequency drives, small horsepower motor control, space heaters and any low wattage, high resistance load application.

The Type SR & SXR resistors are suitable for continuous duty applications where high resistance and low current are required. These units are designed to withstand considerable shock, making them suitable for high vibration applications.

Ventwound Resistor
Powerohm's Type VR Ventwound Resistors can be used for any AC or DC power application. Units are most commonly used for braking of variable frequency drives, motor control, load banks and neutral grounding applications.

The Type VR resistors are suitable for continuous duty applications where low current and relatively high resistance are required. These units are designed to withstand continu-ous current ratings between 2.5 and 16.7 amps, and resistance values ranging between 170.0 and 1.0 ohms, respectively. Units have a rated temperature rise of 375ºC above ambient temperature, which is in accordance with NEMA standards.

Wirewound Resistor
Powerohm's Type WR Wirewound Resistors are designed for low current applications ranging from 1.0 to 32.0 amps continuous, and resistance values ranging between 250.0 and 0.25 ohms, respectively. Units have a rated temperature rise of 375ºC above ambient temperature, which is in accordance with NEMA stan-dards.

These units can be used for any type of AC or DC power application, including motor control, dynamic braking, neutral grounding and load testing. The corrosion resistant Type WR resistor will withstand considerable shock and vibration, qualifying it for use in most harsh environments.

Edgewound Resistor
Powerohm's Type ER and ERB Edgewound Resistors can be used for any AC or DC power application. Units are most commonly used for VFD braking, motor control, load banks and neutral grounding applications.

The Type ER and ERB resistors are suitable for continuous duty applications where low resistance and high current are required. The high element mass allows these units to withstand high current, intermittent duty applications. This characteristic, combined with the high-temperature ceramic insulation, makes the edgewound ideal for neutral grounding applications, which reach temperatures as high as 800°C.

Grid Resistor
Powerohm's grid and ribbon resistors can be used for any AC or DC power application. Units are most commonly used for motor acceleration and braking, but are also suitable for load banks, harmonic filtering and some neutral grounding applications.

The combination of stainless steel elements and rugged features make these units suitable for use in almost any environment. These designs are ideal for high vibration areas such as overhead cranes operated in steel mills and manufacturing plants.
