C-III Varistor Series
Description
The C-III 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 Series is primarily intended for use in AC
line Transient Voltage Surge Suppressor (TVSS)
product environment and other similar applications
requiring high transient energy and peak current
capability in a relatively small package size.

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.
