KR Series
Pulse Surge Protective Resistor
Features
This series is applied in high-frequency, sharp-impulse circuits. For example, missle detonators, fuel ignition systems, etc. It is capable of completely replacing carbon composition resistors, and compared to carbon composition resistors, this series offers better performance.
Small in dimension and broad range in high resistance.
Metal glaze resistor elements provide high stable performance.
Excellent absorption of electric shock (pulse, surge voltage)
Operating Temperature: -55ºC to 225ºC (extended temp. range to 350ºC available)
Wattage: 1/8 to 4w

5th black band identifies part as Pulse Protector
Resistance Tolerance: ±5%
Resistance Range: 100Ω - 1G
