APPLICATION
Overvoltage and transient voltage protection
DESCRIPTION
The varistors consist of a disc of low-ß ceramic material with
two solid copper leads (US20 types only) or copper clad
steel wire. The wires have a matte tin plating. They are
coated with UL94-V0 approved silicone lacquer, which
provides electrical, mechanical and climatic protection.
MOUNTING
The varistors are suitable for hand-mounting (bulk) or
automatic pick and place mounting (T and R). The parts can
be connected by wave soldering and pin-in-paste reflow
soldering under defined process conditions. Bending of the
leads for different angle placement is not recommended.
Typical Soldering
235 °C, duration: 5 s (Pb-bearing)
245 °C, duration: 5 s (lead (Pb)-free)
Resistance to Soldering Heat
260 °C; duration: 10 s max.
MARKING
The varistors are marked with the following information:
Maximum continuous RMS voltage with - U suffix
Series numbers
- 572 for VDRUS07
- 573 for VDRUS10
- 575 for VDRUS14
- 576 for VDRUS20
