Anti Surge Metal Film Resistors

Stackpole Electronics Inc offers ASR Series of Anti-Surge Metal Film Resistors that are rated for high voltage applications. Working voltage for the ASR Series ranges from 1150 to 4000 V with overload voltage from 1500 to 5000 V. In addition, the ASR can handle high voltage capacitor discharges from 3 kV for the smaller sizes up to 10KV for the larger. The ASR also features outstanding single and repetitive square pulse handling when compared to standard film resistors. The ASR Series is ideal lower cost replacement for ceramic composition and carbon composition resistors where the pulse voltage capability of the resistor is critical or where the inherent inductance of wirewounds is undesirable. In addition, this series is popular for high voltage power supplies, medical applications, plasma cutters, test systems, and circuit protection. The ASR Series are available in resistance values from 10 ohm to 12 Mohm. Power ratings range from ¼ watt to 2 watts and 5% tolerance is standard.
