High Energy Ceramic Resistors
Key Features of High Energy Pulse Resistors
- Resistance Value : 75Ω ±20%, composed of five 15Ω ±20% disc resistors.
- Impulse Energy Handling : Capable of withstanding 10kJ pulses every 45 seconds, with infrequent high-energy pulses up to 63kJ (>5 minutes apart).
- Voltage Rating : 12kV @ 1.6s time constant.
- Low Inductance Design : Ensures optimal performance in fast-rise-time and high-frequency pulse applications.
- Enhanced High Voltage Performance : A standard high-temperature silicone coating improves performance in air, while optional configurations optimize operation in gas or liquid dielectric environments.
Applications of Bulk Ceramic Resistors
These ceramic composition resistors are widely used across industries that demand high power pulse resistors , including:
- Pulse power systems for research and industrial applications
- Capacitor discharge circuits in energy storage systems
- High-energy physics experiments
- Medical imaging equipment such as MRI and X-ray machines
- Industrial laser systems requiring precise energy control
Superior Power Dissipation Capabilities
The carbon ceramic disc resistors excel in thermal management, making them ideal for continuous operation in challenging environments:
- In free air, a conservative rule of thumb is 0.25 watts per cm² of exposed surface area. For example, a 50mm disc with both faces and its periphery exposed can dissipate up to 20 watts .
- Higher power dissipation is achievable through conduction cooling by applying an air- or water-cooled heat sink to one or both faces. This adaptability ensures efficient heat dissipation, even in high-power applications.
