The 250R Series is designed to protect against short
duration high voltage fault currents (power cross or power
induction surge) typically found in telecom applications
(250Vrms). The series can be used to help telecom
networking equipment meet the protection requirements
specified in ITU K.20 and K.21.
Features
• 0.08 – 0.18 hold current
range, 60VDC operating
voltage
• 250VAC interrupt rating

WARNING
• Users shall independently assess the suitability of these devices for each of their applications
• Operation of these devices beyond the stated maximum ratings could result in damage to the devices and lead to electrical arcing and/or fire
• These devices are intended to protect against the effects of temporary over-current or over-temperature conditions and are not intended to perform as protective devices where such
conditions are expected to be repetitive or prolonged in duration
• Exposure to silicon-based oils, solvents, electrolytes, acids, and similar materials can adversely affect the performance of these PPTC devices
• These devices undergo thermal expansion under fault conditions, and thus shall be provided with adequate space and be protected against mechanical stresses
• Circuits with inductance may generate a voltage (L di/dt) above the rated voltage of the PPTC device.
