[0028] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of them. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work should fall within the scope of protection of the utility model.

The resistor is also provided with high temperature and high pressure labels and product labels. The utility model adopts one end for liquid inlet (special cooling liquid) and the other end for liquid outlet (special cooling liquid) to achieve the maximum exchange of heat generated by the power resistor with the liquid, and at the same time achieve the purpose of monitoring through the thermostat 7, which is both efficient and safe. The utility model has a reasonable structure, high sealing performance and high resistance to environmental vibration.
[0030] The housing 1 is made of Teflon injection molding or cast aluminum, and has the characteristics of high and low temperature resistance, cooling medium resistance and excellent pressure bearing performance. The housing 1 is provided with a liquid inlet 10, and the liquid inlet 10 is provided with a mounting hole 41, and the thermostat 7 passes through the mounting hole 41 to the housing 1.
[0031] The tubular power resistor 2 is a resistor made of stainless steel, and both ends are fixed to the flange 3 by welding or cable glands. After the flange 3 is subsequently installed, the tubular power resistor 2 is located in the housing 1. The tubular power resistor 2 is U-shaped, and multiple U-shaped tubular power resistors 2 are arranged crosswise, and the resistor tube configuration can be selected according to the power.
[0032] The flange 3 is connected to the flange sealing cover 4 by bolts 12, and a sealing ring 6 is added in the middle for sealing.
[0033] The flange sealing cover 4 is a flange sealing cover 4 made of Teflon injection molding or cast aluminum, which is provided with an internal thread, and the housing 1 is provided with an external thread, and the external thread and the internal thread match each other. The assembled flange sealing cover 4 is screwed on the housing 1. It is fixed by screwing on, which is simple to install and has a good sealing effect. The tubular power resistor 2 is fixed on the flange 3 and then sealed with the flange sealing cover 4 through the sealing ring 6. The sealing structure is ingenious and has a good sealing and pressure resistance effect. The flange sealing cover 4 is provided with a liquid outlet pipeline inside, a liquid outlet 40 is provided on the surface, and a mounting hole 41 is provided around the liquid outlet 40. The thermostat 7 passes through the mounting hole 41 to the housing 1. The liquid inlet 10 is located below the liquid outlet 40, which is conducive to improving the heat dissipation efficiency.

[0039] The utility model can be installed vertically, horizontally or obliquely, and can be freely installed in space only through a clamp-type bracket 8 or a plane bracket; the space requirement is small and the installation is simple.
[0040] As a preferred technical solution, a pressure monitor 13 is installed on the housing 1 .
[0041] The utility model is further introduced through the installation method below:
[0042] 1. Vertical installation:

Finally, install it vertically in the space position through the mounting bracket. In the above assembly process, we can also add and install multiple thermostats 7 or pressure monitors 13 to automatically monitor the liquid temperature in the housing 1 to ensure the normal operation of the resistor (for example: 1. Add a thermostat 7 at each inlet and outlet position; 2. Add a pressure monitor 13 on the outer shell 1).
