1. The Resistor: The Amperite resistor is a specialized resistor designed to protect sensitive electrical components from voltage spikes, surges, and fluctuation that can damage or distort circuitry. It has a thin resistance element that dramatically reduces the impedance at the location in the circuit.
2. The Encapsulated Metal Film: The encapsulated metal film is the most important part of an Amperite circuit. It is composed of a thin resistive element and a protective metal film. This metal film provides mechanical and electrical protection against static electricity, dust, and moisture.
3. The Lightening Arresters: The lightening arresters provide protection for sensitive electronic, electrical, or telecommunications components in all sorts of industrial or residential applications. They are designed to withstand high electrical impulses, such as those from nearby lightning strikes.
4. The Surge Suppressor: Lastly, the surge suppressor is a dedicated component designed to protect sensitive circuits and devices from power spikes, overvoltages, and other forms of electrical damage. The suppressor consists of multiple resistors and capacitors arranged in a circuit to control and suppress the incoming surge.
