The $1.2 billion sale price paid by MetLife was deposited in an account for the benefit of General American Mutual Holding Company policyholders and heirs. 5. Indianapolis Life-American Mutual Life was renamed AmerUs Life Insurance Company in 1995.
Resistor Derating Guidelines. Resistor Power ratings are normally specified at +25oC and must be reduced as the resistor temperature increases. A derating chart is often used, with derating starting at 70oC [Resistor Derating Curve above].
A thermistor is a type of resistor whose resistance is dependent on temperature, more so than in standard resistors. The word is a portmanteau of thermal and resistor.Thermistors are widely used as inrush current limiter, temperature sensors (NTC type typically), self-resetting overcurrent protectors, and self-regulating heating elements.ver small changes in temperature, if the right semiconductor is used, the resistance of the material is linearly proportional to the temperature. There are many different semiconducting thermistors with a range from about 0.01 kelvin to 2,000 kelvins (â273.14 Â°C to 1,700 Â°C) .
