Resistors.
RW Wilkins Standard
Resistors are made from a specially selected alloy
having a low temperature coefficient mounted in a strain free manner, on
formers made from a material of low dielectric loss but of high
mechanical stability. All connections are welded. Prolonged heat
treatment of the elements ensures long term stability and low
temperature coefficient of resistance. The elements are hermetically
sealed in stainless steel containers which are first evacuated and then
filled with dry oil (No.4 Kerosene).
Provision is made for inserting a
thermometer, but the resistors are intended to be used in a controlled
temperature oil bath

Maximum dissipation for the resistors is 1 watt, but the
highest performance will be obtained with dissipation limited to 10
milliwatts, which is the ideal working condition.
No damage will occur
if the dissipation is increased to 1 watt, but self heating will affect
the resistance value after a few minutes.
