WMO-S Series
Application Notes
1. If the resistors are to dissipate full rated power, it is recommended that the terminations should not be soldered closer than 4mm from the body.
2. Due to operating temperature limits imposed by some PCB materials, derating may be necessary. An estimate of the temperature
rise to be expected can be calculated using the thermal impedance figures given under Electrical Data.
3. WMO-S resistors can also be supplied with radial, goalpost or lancet pre-formed leads. Consult Factory for details.

Packaging
Our standard packaging for WMO-S is taped and boxed. The critical dimensions are shown in Figure 1. The component wires will not protrude
beyond the outside edge of the tapes. Pre-formed resistors are supplied loose packed in plastic bags or boxes.
