Sustained temperatures of > 200 K can lead to impaired protection. The power rates are given for 100% duty cycle
and a permanent cooling cycle. In general: If the ambient temperature exceeds 40 C, the continuous power must
be reduced by 5% per 10 K temperature increase.

Maximum Power on smallest space;very small (14mm high), requires only a small place. The REO flat resistor
can be installed as reclining or upright. For vertical mounting on both sides a groove is integrated. A result of
this can be a combination of resistors to get more benefit.
