ETC MP312

MP312 and MP330 Power Film Resistors
Chassis Mounted Precision Power Film Resistors with Center Screw Mounting
Type MP Chassis Mounted Power Film Resistors are made with Micronox®
resistance films fired onto a ceramic substrate which is thermally bonded to an
anodized aluminum base. By mounting this assembly directly to a metal
surface for improved heat transfer, the high power capabilities of these unique
resistors can provide increased packaging densities in many types of
electronic equipment.
The special performance features of these Type MP Chassis Mounted
Power Film Resistors include:
• Two case sizes that provide 15 Watt and 30 Watt ratings.
• Operation up to 275°C.
• Single screw mounting to simplify attachment to the chassis or other heat
conducting surface.
• A molded silicone case that encapsulates the resistor assembly to meet
stringent environmental specifications.
• Extended life stability better than 0.01% per 1,000 hours has been
Specifications:
demonstrated through a 5 1/2 year, 50,000 hour program of continuous
load life testing.

Stacked Type MP Power Film Resistor Assemblies
Stacked Type MP assemblies - constructed by bolting
resistors between aluminum heat dissipating plates - provide a
simple means of further improving packaging densities.
These charts of power ratings versus air flow and chassis
area show the high power levels that can be achieved with
forced air cooling and with convection cooling in either vertical or
horizontal orientation.

Data is for 25°C air at 1 atmosphere,
ducted around resistors in the stack
with 2" x 2" x .04" aluminum plates
between resistors. To derive total
airflow required for stack, multiply
airflow/each resistor by the number
of resistors in the stack. Ducting is
not required when designing for
convection.
