The “A” Series non-inductive,
ceramic composite resistors
are designed for a variety
of applications where high
energy handling capabilities
are crucial. These resistors are
ideal for any application which
is subject to surges, high peak
power, or impulse energy.
Their unique design allows
uniform distribution of energy
throughout their structure
which results in low thermal
stress. The high-temperature,
solvent-resistant epoxy coating
carries a UL94V0 flammabil-
ity rating which is suitable for
almost any environment.

This saddle clip conforms to
the configuration of Ohmite’s
A Series resistor to provide
secure mounting. Made
of a durable thermoplastic
polyester, the saddle clip is
designed to secure the A
Series in place while safely
withstanding its operating
temperatures. Use (2) saddle
clips per resistor for extra
stability.
