Power Resistor 20W 8.2Ω
The Power Resistor 20W 8.2Ω is a high-power wire wound resistor designed for demanding electronic circuits requiring reliable dissipation of waste heat and precise resistance. This component features an 8.2 ohm nominal resistance with a power rating of 20 watts, making it well-suited for applications where both elevated power handling and consistent performance are essential. The resistor’s body is constructed from cement-encapsulated ceramic, providing excellent thermal and mechanical stability under sustained load conditions. Its horizontal through-hole design with sturdy wire leads ensures secure mounting and effective heat transfer from the resistor element to the surrounding environment, which in turn supports consistent circuit behavior and prevents premature failure.
Features:
- 20 Watt rated power handling for high-power circuit applications.
- 8.2 Ω resistance value with ±5 % tolerance for reliable performance.
- Cement-encapsulated construction for enhanced thermal and mechanical resistance.
- Through-hole horizontal mounting with robust wire leads for secure installation.
