If choosing a low-quality varistor With Straight Leads or Kink Leads, there are several situations where it may fail:

• The first type of degradation is manifested by an increase in leakage current and a significant decrease in the voltage sensitive voltage until it reaches zero. 

  The leakage current refers to the maximum direct current voltage applied at 25C or other specified temperatures

• The second type of explosion, if the surge energy caused by overvoltage is too large and exceeds the maximum bearing capacity of the selected 6KV 3KA MOV Metal Oxide Varistor Surge Protection, the  dipped varistor will experience ceramic explosion when suppressing overvoltage.

• The third type of perforation, if the peak overvoltage is particularly high, the failure mode of the Radial Leaded Zinc Oxide Varistor 6KV3KA is mostly manifested as deterioration of each perforation (short circuit). 

  The solution is to connect a suitable circuit breaker or fuse in series with the dipped varistors when using it to avoid accidents caused by short circuits.

In summary, when a radial leaded  varistor absorbs a surge and experiences a drop in breakdown voltage, its operating current will become too high until it burns out.

1. When a rupture occurs (such as cracking of the packaging layer and separation of the leads from the ceramic body), it will break the circuit and render the protection ineffective.

2. When this short circuit occurs, it will burn it out. When the usage environment or humidity of the epoxy varistor is too high, it will deteriorate (collapse voltage decreases), resulting in excessive working current until it burns out or short circuits.

3. When the operating voltage of the epoxy coated metal oxide varistors exceeds the rated working voltage, it will deteriorate (the breakdown voltage will decrease), resulting in excessive working current until it burns out or short circuits.

So, choosing high-quality products is very important, and we are exactly the partner you can trust completely.

WEET WVA Epoxy Varistor, abbreviated as VDR or Varistor, is a special type of resistor device with nonlinear volt ampere characteristics.

WEET WVA Dipped Varistor disc diameter 05D,07D,10D,14D,20D.

WEET WVA Radial Lead Disc Varistors are not true resistors, but rather components with transient voltage suppression function. They generally have no positive or negative polarity, which is different from TVS. When used, they are also connected in parallel with the protected IC or circuit, and the response time of WEET WVA DIP varistor 5D180K diameter 5mm varistors will be slightly slower than TVS.

Let's take a look at the classification of WEET High Power DIP WVA Varistors:

• Distinguish by volt ampere characteristics:

  It can be divided into symmetrical Round Zinc Oxide Varistors (non-polar) and asymmetrical Metal Oxide Varistor China Dipped Radial MOV(polar). The 05D Epoxy Resin Metal Oxide Varistor we usually use have no polarity.

• Differentiate by structure:

  It can be divided into junction type MOV Zinc Oxide Varistor 5mm Disc varistors, bulk type Thru Hole Varistor DIP-2 For Power Adaptor, single particle layer 5D Series Metal Oxide Varistor MOV , and thin film Varistor With Straight Leads or Kink Leads.

• Classified by materials used:

  It can be divided into zinc oxide varistors, silicon carbide varistors, metal oxide varistors, germanium (silicon) varistors, and barium titanate varistors.

What are the uses of varistors?

1.  Transistor, IC, Overvoltage protection for thyristors, semiconductor switching elements, and WEET WVA various electronic and electrical equipment.

2.  Surge absorption and overvoltage protection for household appliances.

3.  Industrial electrical surge absorption.

4. Static discharge and noise signal elimination.

5.  Surge absorption of relays and solenoid valves.

6.  Lightning protection and overvoltage protection for telephone program-controlled switches and communication equipment.

7. Overvoltage protection for residual current switches.

A resistance device with nonlinear volt ampere characteristics, made of semiconductor materials, is called a High Power DIP Varistor.

The resistance material of WEET WVA Varistors is semiconductor, so it is a variety of semiconductor resistors.

The widely used "zinc oxide" (ZnO) varistors are composed of divalent element (Zn) and hexavalent element oxygen (O) as their main materials, hence they are also known as Metal Oxide Varistor China Dipped Radial MOV.

The over voltage protection of Radial Leaded Zinc Oxide Varistor 6KV3KA Varistors can be used in power protection, communication equipment, industrial control systems, and other fields. The lightning protection of 

Round Zinc Oxide Varistor is mainly used for outdoor power systems and electrical equipment. The over current protection of DIP varistor 5D180K diameter 5mm can be used to protect power equipment, large electromagnets, and large motors from equipment damage caused by over current.

The role of WEET WVA Radial Leaded Metal Oxide Varistor in electronic products is mainly reflected in the following aspects:

1. Lightning protection:

MOV Zinc Oxide Varistor 5mm Disc Varistors can respond to and shunt lightning strikes or other overvoltages, protecting other components in the circuit from the effects of lightning strikes.

Varistors play different roles in different situations, but of course, in order for them to perform their intended function, it is necessary to use high-quality and high-performance Round Zinc Oxide varistors.

2. Over voltage protection:

The main function of a 6KV 3KA MOV Metal Oxide Varistor Surge Protection varistor is to clamp the voltage to a relatively fixed voltage value through its nonlinear volt ampere characteristics when the circuit is subjected to over voltage, thereby absorbing excess current to protect electronic components.

When the voltage in the circuit exceeds the threshold of the Varistor With Straight Leads or Kink Leads, its resistance value will sharply decrease, thereby converting the excessive voltage into a relatively small voltage to prevent damage to subsequent circuits or electronic components caused by over voltage.

3. Over current protection:

In some applications, High Power DIP Varistor can also be used for over current protection. When the current in the circuit exceeds the rated current of the Radial Leaded Zinc Oxide Varistor 6KV3KA, the resistance value rapidly decreases, diverting the additional current to ground and protecting other electronic components.
