Vishay VR68 high voltage metal glaze resistor, 10 MΩ, 1 W, ±5%, 10 kV rating. Leaded ceramic body with light blue lacquer finish.
The Vishay VR68 High Voltage Metal Glaze Resistor is a leaded 10 MΩ, 1 W component with ±5% tolerance and a 10 kV rating, designed for electronic applications that require stability under high voltage.
Overview
The resistor uses a high-grade ceramic body with a precision metal glazed film. A helical groove is cut into the resistive layer to achieve the specified resistance value. Tinned electrolytic copper wires are welded to the end-caps for connection, and the component is finished with a light blue protective lacquer that provides electrical insulation and mechanical and climatic protection. The component measures 3.3 (width) x 1.5 (depth) x 4.3 (height) and weighs 1.943 gm.
Applications
The series is intended for environments where high resistance, stability, and reliability at elevated voltages are required. It can be used in high-humidity conditions, within white goods appliances, and in power supply units. With a pulse loading capability of up to 10 kV, it is designed to withstand transient surges.
Standards and Approvals
The series meets IEC 60065, EN 60065, VDE 0860, and CQC (China) safety standards. It is UL recognised under UL1676 (File E171160).
Key Specifications
The Vishay VR68 High Voltage Metal Glaze Resistor suits designs that call for a 10 MΩ, 1 W resistor with a 10 kV rating and a wide operating temperature range.
