Carbon Film Resistors

WE Components India Private Limited offers Stackpole's HDM Series moisture resistant Carbon Film Resistors. These are manufactured using special materials, processing, and controls to achieve a level of moisture withstanding far better than comparable film resistors. The HDM Series remains stable after 1000 hours at 93% humidity and 1% bias. Standard carbon film and metal-film resistors will typically fail in these conditions. In addition, the HDM Series can withstand 100 hours at 2 atm of pressure and 100% relative humidity without failing. The HDM Series' carbon film resistance element is less expensive than metal glaze resistors, which are normally used for high humidity requirements. Finally the HDM Series offers 1% tolerances, which are normally difficult for carbon film technology to achieve. Applications for the HDM include portable test equipment, industrial and outdoor controls, safety and surveillance equipment, and power tools. The HDM Series is available in ¼ watt and ½ watt power ratings. The Company also offers Passivated Nichrome Resistors, Automotive Varistors, Surface Mount Resistor, etc.
