Description

The USR-SF series is an ultra stable primary standard resistor which is an enhanced version of the USR/ASR series, through the use of Bulk Metal® Foil technology.  The ultra stable resistive element utilizes a new generation of stress-free Bulk Metal Foil technology developed by Alpha Electronics and leverages their 37 years of experience using proprietary Nickel Chrome alloy. The result is extremely low temperature coefficients as ±0.05 ppm/°C at 23°C ±5°C, a level of performance that is unique to Alpha Electronics.  The stress-free resistance element eliminates stress factors by using a special treatment process and encapsulation within a specially-designed ceramic case to protect against humidity and oxidation. The result is less than 0.5 ppm/year (0.2 ppm/year typical) .  Alpha's Bulk Metal Foil construction provides excellent AC characteristics—superior to the performance of conventional wire-wound standard resistors.  The USR-SF, with its extreme long-term stability and low TCR, can be used in air which reduces cost and operation for maintenance of oil bath.  The resistive elements are held within a specially designed case so, it's suitable for environments with high vibration such as transportation.

Description

The ASR series is an extremely stable standard resistor. Alpha’s Ni/Cr alloy Bulk Metal® Foil technology is used as the resistive element, providing high stability and low temperature coefficient. The process of building a standard resistor requires significant experience and a great degree of skill. Due to our long-term experience in developing and enhancing ultra stable Bulk Metal® Foil technology, we are able to provide products with consistency of performance under strict quality control. 

With the extreme stability of this resistor relative to temperature change, the ASR can be used in air without oil bath or critical environmental temperature control eliminating added expense and maintenance problems.

The ASR is designed to be used in a broad range of environments—from a production floor for making precise measurements, to a corporate traceability system as a calibration and reference standard.
The resistors are mounted in a compact sturdy box with cover whose construction is designed to protect the resistor and terminals from any damages.
