MATERIAL SPECIFICATIONS
Element: copper-nickel alloy or nickel-chrome alloy,
depending on resistance value
Core: ceramic, steatite or alumina, depending on physical
size
Encapsulant: silicone molded construction
Housing: aluminum with hard anodic coating
End Caps: stainless steel
Standard Terminals: For RE77 and RE80 terminals are
threaded stainless steel. All others are 60/40 tin/lead (Sn/Pb)
w/Nickel underplate on copper clad steel core terminal.
Part Marking: Dale, model, wattage, value, tolerance, date
code
NON-INDUCTIVE (TYPE N)
Models of equivalent physical and electrical specifications
are available with non-inductive (Ayrton-Perry) winding.
They are identified by substituting the letter N for G in the
model number (RE60N, for example).
