Wurth Elektronik WE-VS Surface Mount Varistor 900 pF Capacitance 1 A Clamping Voltage 38 V 24 V Varistor 1206 82551140

Wurth Elektronik model 82551140 WE-VS surface mount varistor is a high performance surge protection component designed to safeguard sensitive electronic circuits from voltage transients. Featuring a capacitance of 900 pF and a varistor voltage of 24 V, it efficiently suppresses transient voltages by clamping at 38 V with a maximum surge current capacity of 100 A. This varistor is housed in a compact 1206 SMD package with dimensions 3.2 mm length, 1.5 mm thickness, and 1.6 mm depth.

Operating reliably between -40°C to +85°C, the device utilises silver/nickel/tin termination styles ensuring robust solder joints and long-term mechanical stability. The varistor's energy rating of 0.3 joules allows it to absorb moderate surge energies from events such as lightning strikes or switching transients, conforming to IEC 61000-4-5 surge protection standards. This makes it ideal for use in industrial electronics, power supplies, telecommunications equipment, and consumer electronics where transient voltage protection is critical.

The WE-VS series varistors are designed to immediately return to a normal mode after a surge impulse, eliminating slip current and enhancing protection reliability. Its surface mount format facilitates automated assembly processes and space-efficient PCBs.

Typical applications include industrial machines, electronic control systems, telecommunications infrastructure, and sensitive measurement devices within laboratory and manufacturing environments. This varistor ensures longevity and performance in demanding surge protection tasks.
