Multicomp Pro MCKNP Wirewound Resistor, 150R, 7W, 1%

The Multicomp Pro MCKNP series is a high-performance wirewound resistor designed for demanding electronic applications. It features a robust rod-type ceramic body for stability and strength, with a tin-plated iron surface steel end cap ensuring excellent conductivity and corrosion resistance. This through-hole fixed resistor utilises high-quality annealed copper leads coated with a tin-lead finish, which are insulated and feature a non-flame paint coating for enhanced safety and durability.

A key attribute of this component is its non-inductive design, making it suitable for AC and high-frequency circuits where inductance must be minimised. It also boasts excellent flame resistance, providing an added layer of safety in the event of circuit overload. The resistor is rated for operation in ambient temperatures up to 70°C and can be securely joined using welding techniques. Its construction ensures there is no evidence of flaming or arcing under rated conditions.

Installation Guidelines

For proper mechanical stability, the terminal leads can be bent through 90° at a point approximately 6mm from the resistor body. They can also be rotated through 360° about their original axis in alternating directions for a total of three rotations without compromising integrity.
