High Voltage Planar Resistors

4500 Series

•Voltages up to 20kV dc.

•Powers up to 4.5 Watts

•TCR to 50ppm/°C

•Customs design service available

•Planar construction gives low inductance and capacitance

Application Notes

The terminations should not be bent closer than 1.5mm from the body, and the recommended minimum bend radius is 1mm.

Due to the high voltage which can appear between the resistor body and any adjacent metal part, resistors should be mounted at an adequate distance from other conducting parts.

Due to the possibility of surface condensation it is recommended that high voltages are not applied to resistors

in conditions of high humidity.
