Resistors promise powerful performance

Rapid has an extensive range of carbon composition and aluminium clad wirewound resistors from Arcol.

Arcol is one of the leading names in resistor technology, and Rapid Electronics can supply an extensive range of the manufacturer's carbon composition and aluminium clad wirewound resistors.

These devices are designed to meet the demands of high voltage power in automotive, medical and lighting applications.

Leading the range is Arcol's new RCC series of carbon composition resistors, providing very high pulse capability and low inductance.

Available in 0.25 and 0.5W power dissipations, the RCC is a solid axial lead carbon slug resistor offering resistance values between 2.2 and 910kohm.

They may be small but their carbon composition ensures a powerful performance.

A 1kohm, 0.25W resistor only 6.4mm long will absorb a 12kV pulse with a minimal change in delta R.

Rapid stocks more than 140 product lines in the RCC series.

Arcol's aluminium clad resistors are designed for applications requiring high power dissipation in a limited space.

Available in 10, 25, 50, 100, 200 and 300W versions, these wirewound products deliver maximum results across a huge range of resistances.

A combination of welded construction and quality resistance alloys and control ensures exceptional reliability.

Rapid stocks 84 product lines in this series.
