TVS - Varistors, MOVs

Transient voltage surge suppressors (TVSS) protect electronic components from transient voltage and surges by providing a path to ground to any overvoltages. TVS are designed to limit overvoltages and reduce the amplitude of any surges present. There are two main types of TVS devices available for transient protection - varistors and metal oxide varistors (MOVs).A varistor, also known as a voltage-dependent resistor (VDR), is a voltage-sensitive device with a low-resistance when presented with a positive voltage and a high-resistance when presented with a negative voltage. Variators are extremely fast-response components and can handle large amounts of power, making them suitable for uses involving high-energy surges.The B72500T1140S260 is an example of a varistor. It is rated for a maximum peak surge of 200A (8/20 μs) and a continuous operating voltage of 250V. The device has a non-linear response, meaning it starts to conduct current when the voltage level reaches the device\'s threshold level (nominally 200V). When the voltage level returns to normal, the current stops flowing and the device returns to a high- resistance, non-conducting state.Metal Oxide Varistors (MOVs) are similarly voltage-sensitive and current-limiting devices. However, whereas varistors are formed from semiconductors, MOVs are formed from compounds of metals and other elements, including zinc oxide, tin oxide, and other metal oxides. MOVs have a very fast reaction time and can operate at very high currents, making them suitable for applications such as surge protectors and circuit protection.The B72500T1140S260 is a MOV with a peak surge rating of 160A (8/20 μs) and a continuous operating voltage of 250V. It has a non-linear response, meaning current only flows when the voltage level exceeds the threshold level, which in this case is 200V. When the voltage level returns to normal, the device returns to a high-resistance, non-conducting state.The B72500T1140S260 is suitable for many applications, such as the protection of industrial control systems, AC/DC power supplies, and other high-power electronic equipment from transient overvoltage. This device is ideal for applications requiring higher holding voltages than standard MOVs, or that require a higher energy rating.In summary, the B72500T1140S260 is a varistor or MOV designed to provide protection from transient overvoltages. It has a peak surge rating of 200A (8/20 μs) and a continuous operating voltage of 250V. Its non-linear response enables it to have a very fast reaction time and prevents overcurrents from damaging components. The B72500T1140S260 is suitable for many industrial and AC/DC power supply applications, and is ideal for applications requiring higher holding voltages or higher power ratings.
