Type HB Series
Tyco Electronics is a leading
European supplier of standard and
custom designed high value/high
voltage resistors for high voltage,
industrial, control, medical and
general-purpose use.
The HB is a tough epoxy coated
high voltage resistor, with axial or
radial leads, values up to 1G Ohm
and an operational voltage to 20kV
as standard and 30kV to order.
The resistors are made from quality
materials for optimum reliability and
stability. Tyco Electronics can test
resistors to conform to relevant
international, MIL or customer
specifications.
Tyco Electronics is happy to advise
on the use of resistors for high
frequency applications and to
supply information for high voltage
use.
