Description: GE-MOV zinc oxide varistors are voltage dependent, symmetrical resistors which perform in a manner similar to back-to-back zener diodes in circuit protective functions and offer advantages in performance and economics. When exposed to high energy voltage transients, the varistor impedance changes from a very high standby value to a very low conducting value thus clamping the transient voltage to a safe level. The dangerous energy of the incoming high voltage pulse is absorbed by the GE-MOV varistor, thus protecting your voltage sensitive circuit components.

This type of failure is normally a result of a decreasing V, value, but does not prevent the device from continuing to function. However, the varistor will no longer meet the original specifications. 500 T T MODEL SIZE 1 (7mm) 100 8 EAS 90 & 100 RSS SSe $ 50 = >. a SS ~ 1 x - a 10 \ . x. = 60 a Nas e . \\ WESSSS & 3 10 3 a Wi: = 108 2 \ vo" v \* 108 at 5 = 108 w 10 | 20 50-100 500 {000 5000 10,000 LENGTH OF PULSE TAIL - SEC FIGURE 19 5000 T t MODEL SIZE 2 (14mm) Sook w !
