Seaward RM8 8 Decade Resistance Box

The Seaward RM8 8 Decade Resistance Box, 0.01 Ohms to 100 kOhms offers a very wide range 0.01 Ohm to 1 MOhm in a compact and versatile unit. The low decade steps of 0.01 Ohm enable very high resolution, when simulating resistance values and the power rating is 1.0 watt per coil. The RM8 uses double pole switching to minimize the effects of contact resistance. The lower value decades (0.01 and 0.1 Ohm) are manufactured from Manganin resistance wire and the other decades from selected metal film resistors. This offers good stability combined with excellent load and temperature coefficients. Housed in a hardwood case with metal panel, this model is only 254 x 145 x 80mm and the connections are with 4mm binding posts that will accept spade or banana plugs.
