REO’s BWD158 range of aluminium-clad water-cooled resistors are built to dissipate up to 60kW continuously. They are sealed to IP65 in an anodised aluminium housing and all connections and fixings are either stainless steel or anodised aluminium to protect against corrosion. Resistances between 2 and 850Ω are available, and different sizes have power ratings from 1kW ...
