Powerohm Resistors, Inc. USR000027 Power Resistor

The USR000027 Power Resistor from Powerohm Resistors, Inc. is a high-wattage, fixed resistance device engineered for demanding power electronics. It presents a 20.0-ohm impedance and is capable of carrying up to 7.9 amps while dissipating as much as 1260 watts, making it suitable for circuits that require a substantial and predictable resistance under heavy load. This part is identified by the USR000027 code, aligning the component with Powerohm Resistors’ line of rugged power resistors designed for industrial and lab applications where stable resistance and robust heat tolerance are critical. The combination of a precise 20.0 Ω value with a high 1260 W rating provides designers with a clear target for current handling and thermal budgeting in applications that demand reliable performance at elevated power levels. When selecting this resistor, confirm that your supply voltage, current limits, and cooling capacity align with the 7.9 A and 1260 W ratings to ensure safe, long-term operation.
