Metal Oxide Varustors |
Cedicom Electronics manufactures a wide range of METAL OXIDE VARISTORS (MOV'S) for Surge Protection Application. The AC power line environment contains electrical high voltage transients/surges due to lighting, line to ground faults, short circuits fuse blow, switching on and off heavy electrical machinery and many more causes. These voltage surges could be high as 6KV and can last for a few micro seconds to milliseconds, further more, the frequency of these surges often could be at least four times a day. These transients, inspite of their normally short duration, are extremely damaging to the modern electronic equipments where in advanced IC's and other components are used and are very sensitive to such high voltage surges. Major failure in these sophisticated electronic systems are attributed to these transients. Besides failure in electronic systems these transients can also cause damage to electrical systems by damaging transformers, contractors and similar components by causing insulation break-down, spark over, etc.
To overcome the problems associated with the transients, often surge suppressor devices are used. Amongst the suppressor devices that are available "Metal Oxide Varistor' (MOV's) are the latest type of electronic devices used for surge suppression.

METAL OXIDE VARISTOR
|
 |
The MOV's are voltage dependent, non-linear devices which are manufactured using semi conducting metal oxides and has a current (1), voltage (V) characteristics given by the following equation 1=KVn where K is a Parametric constant and 'n' in the non-linear factor.
The I-V characteristic, thus, is very similar to that of back-to-back zener diode (but zener diode has very
limited range of surge protection and energy handling capability). The advantages in using MOV's are:
 |
Can be used in AC or DC Lines |
 |
Large surge current withstand capability |
 |
Excellent voltage clamping properly |
 |
Very low leakage current |
 |
Fast response time |
 |
Symmetrical current voltage characteristics |
 |
Wide choice of operating voltage and Energy ranges |
 |
No follow on current |
