SPECIAL MEDIUM VOLTAGE VARISTORS - SV SERIES

Description
The SV series is a series of lead style epoxy coated square or rectangular
shaped varistors with an AC operating voltage ranging from 60 V to 550 V.
There are two groups of these varistors.

The first consists of square shaped varistors with extremely high cur-
rent and energy capabilities and a low clamping voltage, providing an
increased level of protection necessary for the transients expected in
telecommunication and AC power networks. Compared to electrically
equivalent disc varistors, SV varistors come in smaller nominal dimensions.

With the second SV series group, the customer is offered the opportunity
to design their own optimum varistor to suit their specific application,
within the dimensions that are possible. Parameters free to be chosen are: non-standard DC/AC operating voltage, leakage current,
clamping voltage, maximum surge current, energy absorption level, maximum dissipation power as well as shape, the dimensions
being the function of required electrical parameters and vice-versa.

ASSEMBLY RECOMMENDATIONS FOR TH COMPONENTS

Very often before soldering through-hole components, their leads get bent. It is import-
ant not to damage the component during lead bending. Typical damage incurred during
bending is cracks in epoxy parts, which can lead to increased humidity sensitivity of a
component and consequentially to a shorter life time.

In order to avoid epoxy parts damage it is necessary to:

- fix the most sensitive point (epoxy parts) of a component body

- bend the wire at least 2 mm below the end of epoxy parts

Other potential damage to a component which can lead to component failure or a short-
er life time is thermal shock during manual soldering with a soldering iron. This can occur
in the case when a soldering iron is placed too close to one point of the component body
and most often it happens if the solder joint is too close to the varistor body.

° Resistance to Soldering Heat

In the case of automatic wave soldering, it is important to provide sufficient resistance

to soldering heat. In order to prevent any potential problems KEKO VARICON decided
to introduce their own internal standard for testing the resistance to soldering heat of
through-hole components: 300 °C, 10s.

° Pb-free Wave Soldering Profile Recommendations

Recommended soldering profiles for all above components are in accordance with
JEDEC standard curves (J-STD-020D) and therefore compatible with the new Pb-free
process.

Terminology
Term Symbol Definition
Rated AC Voltage Vrms Maximum continuous sinusoidal AC voltage (<5% total harmonic distortion) which may be
applied to the component under continuous operation conditions at 25 °C

Rated DC Voltage Vdc Maximum continuous DC voltage (<5% ripple) which may be applied to the component under
continuous operating conditions at 25 °C
Supply Voltage V The voltage by which the system is designated and to which certain operating characteristics of
the system are referred; Vrms = 1,1 x V
Leakage Current Idc The current passing through the varistor at Vdc and at 25 °C or at any other specified
temperature
Varistor Voltage Vn Voltage across the varistor measured at a given reference current In
Reference Current In Reference current = 1 mA DC
Clamping Voltage Protection Vc The peak voltage developed across the varistor under standard atmospheric conditions, when
Level passing an 8/20 µs class current pulse
Class Current Ic A peak value of current which is 1/10 of the maximum peak current for 100 pulses at two per
minute for the 8/20 µs pulse
Voltage Clamping Ratio Vc/Vapp A figure of merit measure of the varistor clamping effectiveness as defined by the symbols Vc/
Vapp, where (Vapp = Vrms or Vdc)
Jump Start Transient Vjump The jump start transient results from the temporary application of an overvoltage in excess
of the rated battery voltage. The circuit power supply may be subjected to a temporary
overvoltage condition due to the voltage regulation failing or it may be deliberately generated
when it becomes necessary to boost start the car.

Rated Single Pulse Transient Wmax Energy which may be dissipated for a single 10/1000 µs pulse of a miaximum rated current,
Energy with rated AC voltage or rated DC voltage also applied, without causing device failure
Load Dump Transient WLD Load Dump is a transient which occurs in automotive environment. It is an exponentially
decaying positive voltage which occurs in the event of a battery disconect while the alternator
is still generating charging current with other loads remaining on the alternator circuit at the
time of battery disconect.
Rated Peak Single Pulse Transient Imax Maximum peak current which may be applied for a single 8/20 µs pulse, with, rated line
Current voltage also applies, without causing device failure
Rated Transient Average Power P Maximum average power which may be dissipated due to a group of pulses occurring within a
Dissipation specified isolated time period, without causing device failure at 25 °C
Capacitance C Capacitance between two terminals of the varistor measured at @ 1 kHz
Non-linearity Exponent α A measure of varistor nonlinearity between two given operating currents, In and I1, as described
by I = k V exp(a), where:
- k is a device constant,
- I1 < I < in and
- a 0 log (I1/In)/log(V1/Vn) = 1/log(V1/Vn), where:
- In is reference current (1 mA) and Vn is varistor voltage
- I1 = 10 In, V1 is the voltage measured at I1
Response Time tr The time lag between application of a surge and varistor's "turn-on" conduction action
Varistor Voltage Temperature TC (Vn at 85 °C - Vn at 25 °C) / (Vn at 25 °C) x 60 °C) x 100
Coefficient
Insulation Resistance IR Minimum resistance between shorted terminals and varistor surface
Isolation Voltage The maximum peak voltage which may be applied under continuous operating conditions
between the varistro terminations and any conducting mounting surface
Operating Temperature the range of ambient temperature for which the varistor is designed to operate continuously as
defined by the temperature limits of its climatic category
Climatic Category LCT/UCT/ UCT = Upper Category Temperature - the maximum ambient temperature for which a varistor
DHD has been designed to operate continuously, LCT = Lower Category Temperature - the minimum
ambient temperature at which a varistor has been designed to operate continuously DHD =
Dump Heat Test Duration
Storage Temperature Storage temperature range without voltage applied
Current/Energy Derating Derating of maximum values when operated above UCT (85 °C for PV and 125 °C for DV)
