Allen-Bradley 100-FSV136 Varistor Surge Suppressor
Description
The Allen-Bradley 100-FSV136 Varistor Surge Suppressor is a varistor-based device designed for electrical surge protection, with performance aligned with industry-standard varistor surge suppressor specifications. As a surge mitigation component, it leverages varistor technology to divert excess voltage surges, protecting connected electrical equipment from damage. Based on comparable varistor surge suppressor models, key expected features include RoHS compliance, a wide operating voltage range spanning 11Vac to 680Vac, and robust surge current handling capabilities ranging from 100A to 6500A at 8/20 microsecond waveform. It likely offers a low clamping ratio, low leakage current, and bidirectional, symmetrical voltage-current characteristics for reliable, consistent surge protection. Expected operating temperature range is -40 degrees Celsius to 85 degrees Celsius, with potential agency certifications including UL, cUL, VDE, CSA, or CQC. Typical applications include use with home appliances, gas or petroleum appliances, and industrial electrical systems to shield components from transient voltage spikes. Additional expected technical specs may include a varistor voltage rating, maximum allowable AC and DC voltages, and a defined energy absorption capacity for sustained surge protection performance.
