POWER RATING
Vishay RH resistor wattage ratings are based on mounting to the following heat sink:
RH-5 and RH-10:
4" x 6" x 2" x 0.040" thick aluminum chassis (129 sq. in. surface area)
RH-25:
5" x 7" x 2" x 0.040" thick aluminum chassis (167 sq. in. surface area)
RH-50:
12" x 12" x 0.059" thick aluminum panel (291 sq. in. surface area)
RH-100 and RH-250:
12" x 12" x 0.125" thick aluminum panel (294 sq. in. surface area)

SPECIAL MODIFICATIONS
A number of special modifications to the aluminum housed
resistor style are available upon request. Special
modifications include:
• Terminal configurations and materials
• Resistance values and tolerances
• Low resistance temperature coefficient (RTC)
• Housing configuration
• Threaded mounting holes
• Preconditioning and other additional testing
NH NON-INDUCTIVE
Models of equivalent physical and electrical specifications are
available with non-inductive (Aryton-Perry) winding. They are
identified by substituting the letter N for R in the model
number (NH-5, for example).
APPLICABLE MIL SPECIFICATIONS
MIL-PRF-18546 is the military specification covering
aluminum housed, chassis mount, power resistors. VISHAY
