PV Series
Low & Medium Voltage Plastic Encapsulated SMD Varistor Description:
Stackpole Electronics, Inc.
Resistive Product Solutions
The PV Series is a line of surface mount plastic-encapsulated varistors designed to protect electronic equipment against high voltage surges in the low and medium voltage region. They offer direct SMD equivalents to 5mm and 7mm leaded disc varistors. The thermoplastic encapsulation is non-flammable according to the standard defined by UL94V-0. Terminations are tinned copper sheet. PV varistors are designed exclusively for surface mounting and are available in two model sizes. These transient voltage suppressors cover operating voltages (Vrms) from 11V to 300V and feature maximum surge currents from 100A to 1,200A.
