Elektroniska Komponenter

Rhopoint Nordic was established over 10 years ago as a distributor of precision resistors and passive electronic components have formed a core of the company ever since, although our portfolio has grown considerably. Apart from vast range of resistors in virtually any resistance rating, we also offer a selection of thermistors and inrush current limiters, capacitors, digital isolators, high quality reed relays including the high voltage options, reed switches and products based on the reed switch technology such as flow and float switches for liquid level management, and much more.

We have long standing relationships with most of our carefully selected manufacturing partners, to ensure that our customers only receive quality components suitable for long term designing-in. Our sales engineers all have background in electronics and working knowledge of the electronic components, reinforced by regular training from the manufacturers themselves, so our in-house knowledge is always up to date. That is why we can speak to the design engineers and help them find, price and design-in a solution for their application.

We understand that reading through endless datasheets and looking for an off-the-shelf component that will tick all the boxes is a tedious task. Our team can help whatever your application - they can not only propose a suitable existing model where available, but also offer customised solutions. Majority of our manufacturing partners are able to customise their standard products at no, or very little, extra cost - whether a custom resistance rating, TCR, VCR or tolerance values, lead length or terminations.

Alpha ADR 1-Dial Series

The ADR 1-dial resistance box series from Alpha Electronics offers a range of standard resistors which are ideally suited for repetitive daily work. The single dial system means the resistance is easily switched from one value to another. This greatly improves work efficiency and helps to avoid mistakes, which may happen when using a 6-dial decade standard resistor. They are ideally suited for RTD simulation for platinum (Pt) related products and conductive meters.

  • Fully customisable 1-dial resistance box (up to 24 resistance values)
  • Up to 5-digit resistance values on switching contacts may be specified
  • Resistance values available from 1Ω up to 1MΩ
  • Improved work efficiency and elimination of careless mistakes
  • Lightweight, compact size
  • High precision
  • High stability

The resistance elements utilise Bulk Metal® Foil technology and the connections to the rotary switch are made by using 4-terminal junctions. This ensures that high precision, high stability and low temperature coefficients are achieved.

The ADR-1xxx 1-Dial resistance box is fully customisable. Up to 24 different resistance values can be set into the box.

The ADR-1xxx series has a weight of approximately 1kg and dimensions of 100mm x 150mm x 80mm.
