SKU CH-ZWZ1-H53X8

Two 100 W 8 Ω aluminium-housed wirewound resistors with chassis-mount tabs for high-power heat dissipation

  • Key featuresWire Wound Resistor;green;Chasis Mount;100 W Power;5% Tolera
  • 100 W continuous rating for demanding power circuits
  • Aluminum chassis mount conducts heat directly to cooling plate
  • 5 % tolerance keeps resistance stable under load
  • Compact 81 × 21 × 15 mm body fits tight enclosures
  • Two resistors per pack for balanced or redundant designs

Power-rated resistor pair

This set supplies two 100 W, 8 Ω wirewound resistors in green aluminium housings. They are built for chassis mounting and suit power-supply, transducer, elevator and similar industrial equipment that demands a compact, high-power load element.

Sustained-load behaviour

The aluminium casing transfers heat to a cooling plate, allowing the 100 W rating to be maintained under continuous operation. The wirewound construction handles vibration well and keeps inductance low, so the resistance stays stable during long duty cycles.

Mounting and connection limits

Each unit measures 81 × 21 × 15 mm with a 59 × 15 mm body and provides 1.8 mm and 3 mm mounting holes. The screw-tap terminals accept multiple wiring schemes, but the fixed 5 % tolerance and two-piece pack quantity cannot be altered for tighter matching or larger banks.

Questions about this item

How hot does the 100W aluminum housed resistor get during continuous operation?

The aluminum housing is designed to dissipate heat when mounted on a cooling plate; the body measures 59 x 15 mm and total size is 81 x 21 x 15 mm for thermal transfer.

What mounting hardware do I need to install these wirewound resistors?

Each resistor has mounted hole sizes of 1.8 mm and 3 mm for screw tap installation; you supply the screws and a flat metal surface for heat sinking.

Will the 8 ohm 5% tolerance resistors work with my existing power supply circuitry?

They provide 8 ohms at 100 W with 5% (J) tolerance and non-inductive winding, compatible with standard power supply and transducer designs.
