Additional Application Examples

  • Resistors are used in transducers and sensors in industrial automation systems for signal conditioning, impedance matching, and current and voltage conversion. 
  • Resistors benefit industrial lighting systems by regulating the current. 
  • Resistors dissipate energy safely into heat for variable frequency drives (VFDS) and uninterruptible power supplies (UPS). 
  • Resistors regulate the voltage and current to manage the speed and torque of electric motors. 

However, our dedication goes far beyond only producing high-quality products. Ohmite’s experienced engineers and industry professionals are always willing to share their expertise, ensuring cost-effective solutions. 

Case studies and videos showcasing real-world examples of our products and options will be available soon. Feel free to bookmark this page as we continually update our library to support your designs.
