FEATURES
Description
The C-III Series of Metal-Oxide Varistors (MOVs) are specifically designed for applications requiring high surge energy absorption ratings and superior multiple pulse absorption rating. This is achieved through a special dielectric material formulation which also results in higher repetitive surge ratings than other MOV types.
The C-III Series is primarily intended for use in AC line Transient Voltage Surge Suppressor (TVSS) product environment and other similar applications requiring high transient energy and peak current capability in a relatively small package size.
Features
• Lead-free and RoHS
compliant option available. Please see the device and ratings specifications table for more information
• High energy absorption capability WTM 40J to 530J (2ms)
• High pulse life rating
• High peak current capability ITM 3500A to 9000A (8/20μs)
• Wide operating voltage range VM(AC)RMS 130V to 680V
• Available in tape and reel for automatic insertion; Also available with crimped and/or trimmed lead styles
• No derating up to 85ºC ambient
• The C-III Series is supplied in 10mm, 14mm and 20mm disc versions with various lead options
