The resistive element is wire wound onto a moulded high temperature plastic bobbin with
a central former. The direction of winding is reversed part way through the winding,
giving very low values of inductance. These Neohm resistors use bobbin assemblies with
flattened lead ends, providing high resistance to pull, vibration and torsional forces
during handling, assembly and life.

Ambient Temperature (°C)
UPW Series resistors must be derated for tolerances below 0.1%. Use the graph to select tolerance versus
operating temperature to determine the percentage rated power for operation.
No derating is required for operation below 20 °C.
Mounting
The resistors are suitable for processing on automatic insertion equipment and cutting and bending machines.
Marking
The resistors are marked with the following information:- Manufacturer's name, type number, value and tolerance,
four figure date code.
Packaging
UPW Series resistors are packed loose in boxes.
Performance Characteristics
The evaluation of the performance characteristics is carried out with reference to
IEC specifications QC 400 000 and QC 400 100.
