GRID RESISTORS - 1KW AND LARGER
Milwaukee Resistor Corporation's Grid Resistors are among the most versatile ever developed for high current - low resistance applications. They are competitively priced and incorporate more life and greater dependability then ever before provided by conventional grid resistors.

Benefits/Features
Features of Milwaukee Resistor Corporation Grid resistors include:

• Stainless steel or special alloy elements are stamped and pre-formed into grid strips. This patented design (US Patent 3,212,045) produces uni-directional stress during overloads for coordinated element expansion. Failures caused by element warpage and shorting are eliminated.
• Grid strips are welded together to eliminate hot spots and resistance fluctuations.
• Vibration-resistant insulation is used for extended operation at higher temperatures and higher voltages.
• Grid units are designed for use with natural convection cooling, or can be designed with forced ventilation if size reduction is desirable.
• Multiple units can be mounted in frames or enclosures with other resistor combinations.
• Taps and independent sections can be easily incorporated into the design.
• Different terminal configurations are available to suit customer requirements.
• Hi-potential test at 1500 volt RMS is standard with higher voltage tests available.

Applications
Typical applications where rugged Milwaukee Grids are used include:

Braking Test Loads for Generators Crane Controls Speed Control Grounding Resistors

Elevators Heaters Industrial Controls Motor Starting Processing Equipment
