Chassis Mount Resistors

The 3020-01097-0 application field and working principle is the cornerstone of chassis mount resistance technology. As a form of electromechanical device, chassis mounted resistors are used to reduce or limit the flow of electric current from a circuit.

 Chassis Mount Resistors are designed to withstand mechanical and electrical stress caused by the surrounding environment while still providing specified levels of current and voltage resistance. This type of resistance is typically used in industrial applications, where the environment may be harsh or unpredictable. Common applications include outdoor, military, and automotive.

Chassis Mount Resistors operate on the principle of a variable resistance element. In this context, the resistance of a chassis mounted resistor is increased or decreased depending on the current or voltage applied. This is accomplished by adjusting the resistance element itself or by adjusting the external elements surrounding the component. In order for the resistors to work properly, there must be a physical connection to the circuit board.

Chassis Mount Resistors are available in various sizes and shapes depending on their application. Commonly used sizes of resistors can range from 0.125 mm by 0.250 mm to 3.50mm by 5.00mm. There are also multi-pin, thru-hole, chip, round, or rectangular resistors available. These can be mounted to the circuit board in a variety of ways depending on the material used, and the desired type of mounting.

Chassis Mount Resistors can be used in a variety of applications ranging from power conversion, frequency control, signal filtering, and current control. They are commonly used in medical, communications, and aerospace devices. They are also ideal for use in high-power load switching circuits, train control systems, and motor drives.

In summary, the 3020-01097-0 application field and working principle covers the basics of chassis mounted resistors and their uses in many industries. By using this type of device, engineers and technicians can reduce or limit the electric current from a circuit in an economic and reliable way. Chassis Mount Resistors come in various shapes and sizes and can be mounted in a variety of ways, depending on the material used and type of mounting.
