V430ZA05PX1347

The V430ZA05PX1347 is a varistor, also known as a voltage-dependent resistor (VDR), which is a two-terminal non-linear electrical component with a resistance that changes with the voltage applied. It is a form of transient voltage surge suppression (TVS) designed to protect against voltage surges and sudden electrical spikes.

The V430ZA05PX1347 is designed for high-voltage applications and has a maximum rated peak impulse voltage of 5500V, a rated continuous working voltage of 1500V, and a nominal clamping voltage of 810V. It also has a wide operating temperature range of -40°C to +125°C and is UL13F certified for its safety and reliability.

The working principle of the V430ZA05PX1347 is based on metal-oxide varistors (MOVs). MOVs are composed of two basic components: a ceramic disk and a metal oxide coating. When exposed to a high voltage, the metal oxide coating breaks down, creating an extra current path that diverts the surge away from the components. This extra current path is referred to as a “clamping voltage”, which helps to protect the components from damage.

The V430ZA05PX1347 is ideal for use in a variety of fields, including industrial control systems, medical equipment, rugged outdoor machinery, telecommunications systems, and solar cells. It can be used to protect against electrical spikes in both AC and DC power systems and can handle a wide range of temperatures. Additionally, it features a 360° self-grounding connection which helps to ensure that the device is working properly and will reduce the probability of arcing. The V430ZA05PX1347 is also available in a range of different sizes and has a long service life, making it a reliable and cost-effective choice for many applications.
