Surge protection is an important topic for modern electronics. It is important to understand the various components used to protect against surges and other electrical disturbances. The V18RA8 is an electrical component part of a surge protection system, specifically a thyristor-based, varistor module. This article will discuss the application field and working principle of the V18RA8.
The V18RA8 is a voltage-dependent, nonlinear resistor. It is composed of thyristors, or silicon-controlled rectifiers, connected in series. The V18RA8 is a component of a surge protection system and is typically used to provide protection from short-term electrical disturbances such as surges or spikes. It is also capable of providing protection against long-term events such as fluctuating voltages, brownouts, contact, and lightning.
The V18RA8 is primarily used in industrial applications such as power supply systems, motors, and generator monitoring and control systems. It is also commonly used in telecommunications and computer networking equipment, where it is used to protect against electrical surge disturbances. In addition, the V18RA8 is also used in a variety of household appliances, such as washing machines, dryers, and other electrical devices.
The V18RA8 works by absorbing and dissipating excess electrical energy. When a surge or other electrical disturbance is detected, the thyristors of the V18RA8 become activated, instantaneously connecting in series to limit the current flow. The current is then dissipated by the varistor, which is composed of metal oxide material that has been sintered into a ceramic-like disk.
The V18RA8 is designed to have a breakover voltage, or breakpoint voltage, of 800 volts. This is the voltage at which the thyristors will activate, effectively providing electrical protection. The peak current rating of the V18RA8 is 25,000 amps, and its hold-off voltage is 600 volts. The high peak current rating of 25,000 amps provides a high degree of protection from short-term electrical events such as surges and spikes.
In addition to providing protection against electrical surges, the V18RA8 is also capable of restricting the flow of voltage in the event of an overvoltage condition. When the voltage exceeds the overvoltage threshold, the thyristors quickly connect in series, limiting the current flow and ultimately preventing the electrical device from being damaged. This type of surge protection device is beneficial in protecting against electrical overstress and can help to prevent damage to electrical equipment.
The V18RA8 is an important component in any surge protection system. It is designed to provide superior protection against short-term events such as surges and spikes, as well as regulating voltage in the event of an overvoltage condition. As an added benefit, the V18RA8 is also capable of providing reliable protection against long-term events such as fluctuating voltages, brownouts, contact, and lightning.
