Construction
Thin film material is sputtered on to high grade ceramic rods.
Nickel plated steel caps are force fitted and the termination
wires are welded to the caps. The value is obtained by a
helical cut in the film and finally the resistor body is protected
by a cement protection applied so that the terminations
remain completely clear.
Terminations
Material
Strength
Solder-coated copper wire.
The terminations satisfy the requirements of
IEC 68.2.21.
Solderability
The terminations meet the requirements of
IEC 115-1, Clause 4.17.3.2
Marking
1% tolerance resistors are colour coded with 5 bands.
2% and 5% tolerance have 4. Band IEC 62 colours are used.
Solvent resistance
The body protection and marking are resistant to all normal
industrial cleaning fluids suitable for printed boards.

Application Notes
To ensure reliable performance at high voltages care should
be taken to avoid potential sources of ionic contamination
contacting the resistor body, for example, flux applied by
spraying, encapsulation materials or contaminants from the
environment of use.
Packaging
All MH series resistors are supplied tape packed ready for
loading on automatic sequencing and insertion machines.
Component wires will not protrude beyond the outside edge
of the tape.
Alternative packing available by request.
