Metal Oxide Through-Hole Varistor (MOV-14D561K)

Metal Oxide Through-Hole Varistor (MOV-14D561K)

The MOV-14D561K Metal Oxide Varistor is a reliable component designed to protect electronic circuits from voltage surges, transients, and electrical spikes. The designation "14D" refers to its 14mm disk diameter, which indicates a medium-sized profile that balances energy absorption capacity with compactness, making it suitable for a variety of circuit designs. The "561" signifies a nominal voltage rating of approximately 560V, allowing this varistor to clamp and divert transient energy effectively in applications prone to fluctuations at or below this voltage range. The "K" specifies a tolerance of ±10%, ensuring predictable and consistent performance. Manufactured from a combination of zinc oxide and other metal oxides, this varistor features a semiconductor-like behavior where its resistance drops rapidly under high-voltage conditions, allowing it to safely shunt excess energy away from critical components. This protective mechanism helps prevent damage to sensitive electronics and extends the longevity of the circuit.
