TE Connectivity are the leading European supplier of standard and custom designed aluminium housed resistors for general-purpose use, power supplies, power generation and the traction industry. The HS is a range of extremely stable, high quality wire wound resistors capable of dissipating high power in a limited space with relatively low surface temperature. The power is rapidly dissipated as heat through the aluminium housing to a specified heatsink.

The resistors are made from quality materials for optimum reliability and stability. TE can test resistors to conform to relevant international, MIL or customer specifications. TE are happy to advise on the use of resistors for pulse applications and to supply information for high voltage use and low-ohmic value, alternative mountings and termination type.
