V150LT20CPX10

The V150LT20CPX10 is an ideal, economical and reliable way to protect your application from electrical over-voltage. It is a 150 volt 20 Amp Transient Voltage suppressor (TVS) also known as a Metal Oxide Varistor (MOV). This device is a non-linear, solid state voltage dependent component specially designed to clamp, redirect, and dissipate transient over-voltage. It has a maximum surge current rating of 2000 Amps.

The V150LT20CPX10 is designed to protect sensitive electronic components from both direct and indirect lightning induced voltages. It is often used to protect your application from surges on ground lines caused by short-circuiting and electrostatic discharge (ESD). This MOV is typically found in a wide array of applications such as power supplies, computers, telecommunications systems, industrial controllers, and household electronic devices.

It is a diode-like device that is composed of a zinc oxide core. In a non-energized state, its resistance is very high, providing a open path for current flow. However, when a large surge current occurs, it will overtax its normal operating resistance and trigger a short circuit path. This results in the device clamping the voltage at a safe level.

The V150LT20CPX10 can handle very large over-voltages and extreme temperatures. It utilizes a quick response design with a very low turn-on time of 2 nanoseconds maximum. This MOV also features a highly reliable ceramic casing and a high failure rate threshold of 99.9999%. It is UL1449 certified, RoHS compliant, and 100% tested to assure quality.

In conclusion, the V150LT20CPX10 is an excellent solution to protect your application from electrical damage caused by over-voltages. With its reliable construction, sturdy design, and quick response time, it is a trusted device to shield your system from hazardous energy.
