The Littelfuse® Varistor Protection (LVSP) Fuses are intended for the protection of TVSS products. The LVSP series has been designed to survive the 8 x 20 µs lightning surges described in various standards (UL 1449, IEC 61000-4-5 and IEEE C62.41) without opening. This allows the TVSS to perform the necessary suppression. The LVSP is not rated for continuous current and the ratings are specific 8 x 20 µs surge capability. The LVSP series can be used to facilitate TVSS module compliance to UL 1449 in permanently connected applications (abnormal overvoltage, unlimited current conditions).
Features
- Very current limiting under AC short-circuit conditions
- Available in multiple mounting configurations (cartridge, bolt-in, PC board mount)
- Provides short circuit protection in TVSS systems and complements the Littelfuse line of overvoltage products (HA, HB34, TMOV® and iTMOV® varistors as well as the AK-10 series TVS diodes)
