The WLRH is a tough, versa-
tile resistor appropriate for the
following applications: motor
starting and speed control,
neutral grounding, lighting bal-
lasts, and A.C. compressor
buffers. This resistor can also
be used in heating applica-
tions. Choose from 45 models
ranging from 0.25 to 250
Ohms to best fit your specific
requirements.
Resistors feature nickel-
copper, nickel-chrome or
stainless steel wire wound in a
double helix around the center
core, depending on size and
model. All have ceramic cores
with a spiral groove to grip the
coiled wire. The 90° flat bus
style terminals are corrosion
resistant stainless steel.
Other mounting options are
available; contact us about
your specific requirements.
