Lead-free Axial Carbon Film Resistor

● ZENITHSUN carbon film resistor is a thin carbon layer that is sputtered (vacuum deposition) on a cylindrical, high purity, ceramic core. The deposited carbon film is artificially aged by keeping it for a long period at a low temperature. This results in a better accuracy for the resistor.
● On both ends of carbon film a metal cover is pressed with the connection leads.
● The desired resistance is achieved by cutting a spiral shaped slot in the thin metal layer.
● ZENITHSUN CF resistor is covered with several coating layers that are baked individually. The coating protects against moisture and mechanical stresses.
● The resistor value is marked by color code bands.
● The typical uses for ZENITHSUN carbon film resistors are in high voltage and high temperature applications.
● Operating voltages up to 15 kV with a nominal temperature of 350 °C are feasible for carbon film resistors.
