TFMOV is a combination of varistors (MOV) and thermal protection component. Since varistor has the characteristics of aging or degrading; TFMOV can separate the varistor from the main circuitry by opening the thermal protection component when the varistor (MOV) degrades or fails. It is often used in which requires high reliability and weather withstanding, such as photovoltaic inverters, communication equipment, and power supplies in data centers, etc.

Usage

1. Frequency range is from 47 Hz to 63 Hz.

2. The voltage applied continuously to the TFMOV can not exceed its maximum continuous operating voltage Uc.

3. When atmosphere press is from 80 kPa to 106 kPa, the related altitude shall be from 2000 meters to - 500 meters.

4. Do not touch the product body or pins directly when power is on, to avoid electric shock.

5. Do not clean the TFMOV with strong polar solvent such as ketone, esters, benzene, halogenated hydrocarbon, to avoid damaging the enclosure.

6. It should have a reliable grounding when using these products.

Replacement

TFMOV is a non-repairable product. For safety sake, please use equivalent TFMOV for replacement.

Storage

Do not store TFMOV at high temperature, high humidity or corrosive gas environment. To avoid reducing the solderability of the pins, please use them up within 1 year after receiving the goods.

Installation Position

Do not install the TFMOV on a place that may often suffer severe continuous vibration.

Mechanical Stress

Do not take violent action such as knocking when assembling to avoid mechanical damage.
