1. COLOR BANDS.
The resistors are permanently color banded for resistance value and
tolerance in accordance with EIA specifications.
Ambient Temperature (°C)
2. HELIXING.
Derating Curve (Typical)
100
The units are helixed to a predetermined base to final value ratio to
obtain the best TCR, noise and stability characteristics.
3. FILM.
Carbon-film resistors have a homogeneous film of pure carbon
deposited by a pyrolitic process at carefully controlled temperatures.

Percent Rated Load
4. SUBSTRATES.
60
The substrates are of a proprietary non alkaline ceramic, prepared
and processed under exacting conditions to guarantee the utmost in
uniformity and surface characteristics.
40
5. INSULATION.
The resistors are coated with multiple layers of a baked-on fire-
retardant synthetic resin which provides the units with a high degree
of mechanical and electrical protection in the most adverse operating
conditions.
