Instructions for Use:

1. Installation:

   • Ensure the varistor is securely mounted using the provided screw terminals.
   • Avoid mechanical stress on the leads by ensuring they are properly supported.

2. Electrical Connection:

   • Connect the varistor in parallel with the circuit you wish to protect.
   • Ensure the polarity is correct if the application requires it, although MOVs are generally non-polarized.

3. Operating Conditions:

   • Do not exceed the maximum continuous operating voltage of 10.8V.
   • Ensure the ambient temperature remains within the specified range of -40掳C to +85掳C.

4. Protection:

   • The varistor will clamp transient voltages above its rated voltage, protecting connected components from overvoltage conditions.
   • Regularly inspect the varistor for signs of damage or wear, especially after exposure to high-energy transients.

5. Handling:

   • Handle the varistor with care to avoid mechanical damage.
   • Store in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight and sources of heat.

6. Disposal:

   • Dispose of the varistor according to local environmental regulations. It may contain materials that require special handling.
