TVS - Varistors, MOVs are used in various applications, mainly for preventing transient overvoltage pulses from damaging the circuits. The V10E140PL2T is a type of MOV (Metal Oxide Varistor)s that provides high surge current protection and low impedance for a wide range of frequencies. It is commonly used in applications such as motor control boxes, power distribution systems, and industrial equipment.

Application Field and Working principle

One of the most common application fields for V10E140PL2T is in AC power-line surge protection for motors. In such an application, the MOV can be mounted directly across the line voltage in the motor control box, providing AC surge current protection up to a rated maximum current surge level. The MOV will reduce or eliminate the peak current through the motor, which might occur during a lightning strike or current surges due to utility switching. The V10E140PL2T has a maximum continuous AC operating voltage of 1400V and a current surge rating of 10kA (8/20µs). This makes it suitable for most AC power applications.

The working principle of the V10E140PL2T is based on changing its electrical characteristics when exposed to an overvoltage. It consists of a metal oxide layer sandwiched between two electrodes. When an overvoltage pulse is applied, the metal oxide layer breaks down and forms a conducting path, allowing current to flow. This reduces the voltage at the terminals, thereby protecting the circuit from overvoltage.

The V10E140PL2T also offers surge current clamping capabilities. This is accomplished by increasing both voltage drop and current conduction as the magnitude of the surge increases. The range of surge current clamping protection offered by the V10E140PL2T is related to its voltage rating, with higher voltage providing higher clamping capability. This makes the V10E140PL2T ideal for applications demanding superior transient overvoltage protection, such as in power distribution systems, industrial equipment, and motor control boxes.

In addition to its surge protection capabilities, the V10E140PL2T has a low impedance profile, which makes it suitable for high frequency applications. As the frequency increases, the current conduction of the V10E140PL2T decreases, resulting in lower power losses and improved system performance compared to other MOVs.

The V10E140PL2T is a reliable, cost-effective solution for many surge protection applications. Its low impedance design provides superior transient overvoltage protection and its ability to clamp surge current makes it well suited for motor control boxes, power distribution systems, and industrial equipment.
