Metal Oxide Varistors (MOV)

Description:

The NTE Metal Oxide Varistors feature a barrier layer that gives the user fast response time. These devices have a high

transient current handling capability when high voltage is applied. Static resistance is, however, very high under low voltage

conditions, permitting low standby drain currents.

The NTE 1V Series Varistors have a non−linear voltage/current characteristic as expressed by the relationship:

Where I = The current in amperes

V = The voltage

K = A constant

n = A constant which shows the dependence of

the voltage V upon the current I. It is called

the voltage−dependant index

Electrical Ratings:

Varistor Voltage

The voltage across the varistor at a DC current of 1.0mA.

Energy

The maximum electrical energy which can be dissipated within the varistor by a single impulse of 10 x 1000s current

waveform with continuous voltage applied. Energy ratings are based on a shift of varistor voltage of less than 10% of the

initial value. The unit is expressed in joules.

Peak Current

The maximum current allowable for a single pulse of 8 x 20s exponential waveform.
