You can look under this heading in Yellow™ to find information on resistors. Resistors are used to limit the flow of electric current and facilitate the provision of a constant power supply to electronic equipment. These products are in high demand in the mobile and electronic industries. Resistors help in regulating power supply and ensuring uniform flow of electricity. Resistors prevent short-circuits and help in increasing voltage if required. Resistor manufacturing companies offer an extensive range of resistors that are tested automatically as well as manually to avoid chances of failure. These devices can have either variable or fixed values and are colour coded to show resistor values.
Resistors with fixed and variable values are manufactured using different components. The fixed value resistors are equipped with carbon films, which are coated with colour bands on which resistor values are displayed. On the other hand, wire wound resistors are capable of transmitting heavy flow without getting overheated. These resistors are widely used in large manufacturing industries where different operations require appropriate power supply. Resistor manufacturers follow a flexible production system and adapt product designs according to their clients’ application needs. These firms conduct product research and development and offer a wide range of resistors to customers in the white goods, defensive avionics, electronics, and automotive fields.
If required, manufacturers also offer demonstrations of various electrical and environmental testing procedures from the batch of sample products. Resistors come in several types such as flame proof wire wound, flat power wire wound, potentiometer, current sense wire formed, rheostat, and semi-precision wire wound devices.
