RS PRO 470Ω 5% 180W High Power Wirewound Adjustable Resistor 50ppm/°C 21.6mm

Introducing the range of RS PRO Adjustable Resistors, an ideal solution for applications requiring settings at different resistance values. These reliable wire-wound resistors are easy to fit and durable thanks to the vitreous enamel construction, making them suitable for use in a wide range of environments where adverse or challenging conditions may impact standard adjustable resistors.

Adjustable or variable wire-wound resistors are a type of passive component used to reduce, restrict and adjust the electrical resistance when working with electrical circuits. The main advantages of these types of resistors are that they offer high accuracy and reliability, but with a low cost and wide resistance range, making them incredibly versatile for use in a range of different applications like:

• Audio and visual equipment


• Computers and telecommunication


• Aerospace, defense and military


• Medical equipment
