NOTE: Average power dissipation of transients not to exceed 0.6W and 1W for model sizes 14mm and 20mm, respectively.
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 in Figure 1. 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.
