RL20S222GR36

Through Hole Resistors are one of the most basic components used in electronic circuits. The RL20S222GR36, also known as a “High Power Resistor”, is a type of through-hole resistor that specializes in managing high power or high current circuits. It features a ceramic body, epoxy coating, and axial leads that stick straight out of the ends and lead into a circuit board. This type of resistor is commonly used in the electronic fields of industrial control systems, power distribution systems, media conversion, and automotive bases.

The RL20S222GR36 is designed to limit current and protect circuits from too much power. It works by adding resistance in a circuit, which reduces the current flow. The RL20S222GR36 is rated for high power applications up to 20 Watts, allowing for higher currents through their body without risking a blowout or overheating. The epoxy coating also offers insulation and helps secure the resistor in place. In addition, the ceramic body is also fireproof and protects against short circuits, making it a great choice for use in power supply circuits.

When it comes to wiring up the RL20S222GR36, the positive and negative leads can easily be identified by their regular white and black stripes. These stripes are then wired directly into a circuit board, or into another component such as an amplifier. It is important to note that the resistor should never be exposed to temperatures higher than 125℃, as this can cause it to overload and fail.

The RL20S222GR36 is a great choice for those looking for a high power resistor that is small, durable, and capable of withstanding high currents. Its ceramic body, epoxy coating, and axial leads make it a reliable component for a wide range of applications, including industrial control systems, power distribution systems, media conversion, and automotive bases. With its ability to withstand up to 20 Watts, the RL20S222GR36 is definitely a resistor capable of managing high power and high current circuits.
