Metal-Oxide Varistors (MOVs) Radial Lead Varistors > C-III Varistor Series C-III Varistor Series RoHS Description The C-III Varistor Series of Metal-Oxide Varistors (MOVs) are specifically designed for applications requiring high surge energy absorption ratings and superior multiple pulse absorption rating. This is achieved through a special dielectric material formulation which also results in higher repetitive surge ratings than other MOV types. The C-III Varistor Series is primarily intended for use in AC line Surge Protection Device (SPD) product and other similar applications requiring high transient energy and peak current capability in a relatively small package size.

Revised: 10/31/18 Phenolic Coated Option Identifier Metal-Oxide Varistors (MOVs) Radial Lead Varistors > C-III Varistor Series Current Energy and Power Dissipation Ratings Should transients occur in rapid succession, the average power dissipation is the energy (watt-seconds) per pulse times the number of pulses per second. The power so developed must be within the specifications shown on the Device Ratings and Specifications Table for the specific device. The operating values of a MOV need to be derated at high temperatures as shown above. Because varistors only dissipate a relatively small amount of average power they are not suitable for repetitive applications that involve substantial amounts of average power dissipation.

Revised: 10/31/18 Metal-Oxide Varistors (MOVs) Radial Lead Varistors > C-III Varistor Series AC Bias Reliability Because of this possibility, an extensive series of statistically designed tests were performed to determine the reliability of the C-III type of varistor under AC bias combined with high levels of temperature stress. To date, this test has generated over 50,000 device hours of operation at a temperature of 125C, although only rated at 85C. Changes in the nominal varistor voltage, measured at 1mA, of less than 2% have been recorded, as displayed in the diagram at right. High Temperature Operating Life 125C for 1000 Hours at Rated Bias 300 V130LA20C VNOM AT 1mA (V) The C-III Series MOVs were designed for use on the AC line. The varistor is connected across the AC line and is biased with a constant amplitude sinusoidal voltage. It should be noted that the definition of failure is a shift in the nominal varistor voltage (VN) exceeding +/-10%. Although this type of varistor is still functioning normally after this magnitude of shift, devices at the lower extremities of VN tolerance will begin to dissipate more power. 250 200 150 100 0 100 200 Figure 12 300 400 500 600 700 TIME (HOURS) 800 900 1000 1100 FIGURE 8. HIGH TEMPERATURE OPERATING LIFE 125 oC FOR 1000 HOURS AT RATED BIAS 500 500 450 450 The transient surge rating serves as an excellent figure of merit for the C-III varistor. This inherent surge handling capability is one of the C-III varistor's best features. The enhanced surge absorption capability results from improved process uniformity and enhanced construction. V130LA20C The homogeneity of the raw material powder and V130LA20C 3kA (8/20s) improved control over the sintering3kA and(8/20s) assembly processes are contributing factors to this improvement. 400 400 In the low power AC mains environment, industry standards (UL, IEC, NEMA and IEEE) all suggest that the 350 worst case surge occurrence will be 3kA.
