Power resistors and resistance heaters share many common design considerations. In both products, good thermal design<\/strong> ensures low thermal resistance between the element and the exterior environment. Both must be rugged and reliable<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Power resistors are often used in heater applications. They allow a designer to apply and control heat to a small area. Riedon offers a broad range of these resistors. If one of our standard resistors won’t do we can modify existing products or create new designs to fit your special requirements.<\/p>\n
