Product Overview
The Vishay Dale WSBS8518...20 is a Power Metal Strip Shunt Resistor featuring two sense pins and extremely low resistance values (50 , 100 , 125 , and 250 ). It offers a high power-to-resistor size ratio due to proprietary processing techniques and a solid metal manganese-copper alloy resistive element. The sense pins ensure consistent contact location, and the welded terminal-to-element construction contributes to its robust design. This resistor is ideal for applications requiring precise current sensing with very low resistance and low thermal EMF.
