¡ñZinc oxide varistor selection (only reference)

Varistor voltage
   Varistor voltage should be more than the operating voltage in over-protective circuit, the formula is shown as the following.
   V1mA=a¡¤v/b¡¤c
 a - power Voltage ripple coefficient, usually take 1.2
 v - DC Voltage (significant value only AC power)
 b - tolerance, usually take 0.85
 c - ageing coefficient, usually take 0.9
   The calibrated value is 1.5 times of DC voltage, the face value should be /2 time of the calibrated value because of the peak voltage in alternating current power.
Withstanding surge current
    In general, withstanding surge current is max pulse current value which determined by test conditions such as wave-shape, amplitude and internal time, when the amplitude decrease to 50% of the initial, it should be increased to 2 times of the initial in order to keep the life longer, the surge current which is absorbed by the varistor should be less than max withstanding surge current.
