Can You Help Me Identify This Component?

[Noch]

I'm looking to identify the black component after the larger capacitors, and before the thyristor. It has the markings 'R100 0915', and some sort of a 'B'.
It's not in the parts list, I'm sure.

I appreciate any help.

Thanks!

It looks like a 0.1 ohm resistor from Bourns. Check the physical size against Bourns web site: https://www.bourns.com/ProductLine.aspx?name=pulse_power_resistors

I've been looking in to it, but I can't find anything to help me anymore than you have. Thank you.

What is it that makes you believe it's a 0.1 ohm resistor?

Is there anyway to tell the Wattage?

Is it possible to put a 0.05, 1/2W resistor in its place?

It says R100 which is why I think it is 0.1 ohm. The link I gave shows several resistors which look the same but as you didn't give dimensions I cannot say exactly which.

A 0.5W resistor would be able to work up to about 3 amps to be within spec. (calculated for 0.05 ohm)

The photo's are all I have to work with, but judging from the size of the capacitor and thyristor, I'd say its dimensions are approximately 14mm x 4.5mm x ??mm (4-7 perhaps)

I agree that it is a 0.1 ohm resistor.

Are you able to tell what function this resistor has?

The maximum amps I can produce is 1.16A, but usually no more than 0.6A using my wind turbine.
