A significant number of our accelerators use old style Allen Bradley 2W carbon resistors like these:
The accelerator supplier, IBA, can no longer supply them. They have an alternative but do not recommend mixing old and new due to different aging characteristics.
Does anyone know of a supplier of these resistors, generally in the meg ohm range? I would only be looking for small numbers to repair damaged strings like above.
Anecdotally there was a previous problem with this type of resistor where the manufacturing process was changed so that the internal end of the leads was cut to a chisel point which resulted in them exploding when a high voltage was applied.
Please drop us a specification for the chain and we'll see what we can provide. Are they 30M 5%? What is the voltage (peak) and duty, do you really need 12W per string? Do they really need to be carbon?
We don't have anything that "looks" or is spec'd like those individual devices, but if you are open to other options I think we could help.
