RSF2GT360R

Through Hole Resistors

Through hole resistors, also known as radial leaded resistors, are a type of resistors that are constructed to be partially submerged in a printed circuit board. They come in a variety of shapes and sizes, and can vary in terms of contact method, power rating, and resistance. The RSF2GT360R is a type of through hole resistor that is specifically designed for high power applications.

The RSF2GT360R is a molded type surface and through Hole resistor that is capable of being directly soldered onto a printed circuit board. The body of the resistor features a flat-to-convex cylindrical shape with a solderable contact along its underside, making it suitable for board level assembly. It offers a high withstanding voltage along with a low profile, making it ideal for high-density mounting.

In terms of its application field, the RSF2GT360R is mainly suitable for high power electronic equipment, such as TVs, washing machines, air conditioners, and the like. The resistor is designed to offer reliable protection in such applications, as its flat-to-convex cylindrical shape allows for a properly balanced heat dissipation effect, preventing overheating and other associated problems. Its solderable contact also ensures that the resistor can remain firmly mounted on the board in the face of high vibration levels.

The RSF2GT360R also features a relatively simple working principle. When the current passes through the resistor, it produces a certain amount of electrical energy, which is then converted into thermal energy. This thermal energy is then released into the surroundings, dissipating the heat generated by the resistor. This process is what allows the resistor to function properly, and it is one of the main advantages of a through hole resistor, as opposed to other types.

Moreover, this type of resistor can also be used in the context of power factor correction. In theory, the higher the resistance value of the resistor, the lower the power factor of the device. By using a resistor with a high resistance value, electrical systems are able to reduce the amount of reactive power in the power system, reducing the overall power consumption of the system.

In conclusion, the RSF2GT360R is an excellent choice for high power electronic equipment applications. Its flat-to-convex cylindrical shape ensures a balanced heat dissipation effect, while its solderable contact ensures proper mounting of the resistor. Furthermore, its relatively simple working principle and potential use in power factor correction applications add to the attractiveness of this type of through hole resistor.
