Metal Oxide Through-Hole Varistor (MOV-14D391K)

Metal Oxide Through-Hole Varistor (MOV-14D391K)

The MOV-14D391K Metal Oxide Varistor is an essential electronic component used for protecting circuits against voltage spikes, transients, and electrical surges. The "14D" refers to its 14mm disk size, indicating a balance between compactness and energy-handling capability suitable for diverse applications. The "391" in the part number signifies a nominal voltage rating of approximately 390V, meaning the varistor activates and begins to conduct when the voltage reaches or surpasses this threshold. The "K" denotes a ±10% tolerance in its voltage rating, ensuring consistent and reliable performance under specified conditions. Composed primarily of zinc oxide particles interspersed with metal oxide granules, the MOV-14D391K exhibits a non-linear resistance behavior, acting as an insulator under normal voltage conditions and swiftly becoming conductive during a surge. This property allows it to safely divert excessive energy, protecting sensitive components within the circuit from potential damage.
