High Power Capacitor Discharge Resistors Type YP Series Type YP Series Characteristics Electrical Resistance Values: Resistance Tolerance: Temperature Coefficient: Maximum Voltage: Derating: Power Rating: Stability: Standard: Marking: 2K, 10K, 18K, 27K, 47K. Other values on request and to order ±5% ±30 ppm/°C (typ.), ±100 ppm/°C (maximum) 825V dc or ac(rms) for YP10, 570V for YP8 Derated linearly to zero at 350°C 10W @ 70°C for YP10 and 8W @ 70°C for YP8 70°C, 1000hr - R/R @ 100% load <±5% Performance as per BS - CECC 40201-002 Type, Resistance value, Tolerance The YP series resistors are coated with multilayer silicone to give an excellent protection to the resistance wire at temperatures from -55°C to 350°C. The Dimensions terminals are designed for quick and easy mounting on capacitors and have a mounting pitch of 22.2 and 31.8 mm. These are wirewound ceramic core resistors designed for voltage balancing of series connected aluminium electrolytic capacitors. These resistors are also suitable for capacitor voltage discharge safety applications in high voltage circuits. Ideally suited for industrial grade capacitors.
