Microhm Electronics customizes high power resistors according to customer specifications, allowing that resistive technology to dissipate even larger amounts of power. The precise engineering technology of these high power resistors allow for cutting edge technology application inside of extremely compact spaces.
Materials used to manufacture high power resistors are made with a high level of thermal conductivity, which allows for the most efficient cooling process. Many technical designs using the high power resistors couple the resistors with heat sinks, enabling the dissipation of an even higher amount of power.
These high power resistors can be wire wound, like Microhm Electronics Nual series, but the most important feature of the high power resistor is, of course, its ability to efficiently dissipate power. The challenge can be how to accomplish this in optimally, within the smallest possible amount of space.
You may be interested to know that high power resistors are used every day in many of the areas of technology that have already become a natural part of our lives. For example, high power resistive technologies are used to dissipate the power your car uses when the engine is braking. This same concept is used in any kind of vehicle that runs on an electric, motor powered, engine including trains and trams.
