Description:

The ZVL Series of low voltage leaded multilayer varistors (MLVs) is designed to protect
sensitive electronic devices operating in the low voltage region against high voltage/current
surges. They offer excellent transient energy absorption due to improved energy volume
distribution and power dissipation. Low voltage MLVs cover a wide DC operating voltage
range from 14V to 56V.

Features:

• AC operating voltage (Vrms) from 11V to 40V
• DC operating voltage (Vdc) from 14V to 56V
• 5 model sizes available 5, 7, 10, 14, 20
• Available with straight or crimped leads
• Broad range of current and energy handling capabilities
• +125ºC continuous operating temperature (+150ºC for ZVYL)
• Dimensional and weight savings on PC board
• Bi-directional, lower clamping voltages than disc type varistors
• ZVYL high temperature product will have performance characteristics different from the ZVL.
Contact Stackpole for specific details.
• 100% RoHS compliant and lead free without exemption
• Halogen free
• REACH compliant
• AEC-Q200 qualified Grade 3

Applications:

• Suppression of inductive switching or other transient events at the circuit board level
• Provides on-board transient voltage protection for ICs and transistors
• Used to help achieve electromagnetic compliance of end products
• Replace larger TVS Zener diodes in many applications
