TVZ : Thermo-Fuse Varistor
DESCRIPTION
Our Thermo-Fuse Varistor (TVZ) is a family of Transient Voltage Surge Suppression products. TVZ
is a three-lead Thermally Protected Metal Oxide Varistor. One lead of the TVZ varistor is connected to
a thermal fuse, it will automatically open-circuit when the varistor is under sustained abnormal
over-voltage condition. The TVZ series is designed to meet the abnormal over-voltage requirements
of UL 1449, Section 37.
Traditional Metal Oxide Varistor (MOV) withstands 150% of its rated voltage for a given duration.
But MOV may fail to a short-circuit condition or fail open when subjected to sustained steady-state
over-voltage above its rated specifications.
Our TVZ has a thermal fuse incorporated with its MOV disk that responds to the MOV temperature
and disconnects the MOV from power should the temperature exceed a certain level.
Our TVZ provides a real “Fail Safe” protection to sensitive downstream electric components.
FEATURES
•
Low Leakage Current under normal operating voltage. Meets UL 1449 abnormal over- voltage test
(5A,2.5A,0.5A and 0.125A).
•
UL1449 pending which include selected test from UL1020 regarding thermal cutoff.
