Technical data

Varistor RV5/50 RV5/133 RV5/250 RV5/440
Rated control circuit voltage Uc 24...50 V AC 50...133 V AC 110...250 V AC 250...440 V AC
24...50 V DC 50...133 V DC 110...250 V DC 250...440 V DC
Residual overvoltage (clipping voltage) 132 V AC 270 V AC 480 V AC 825 V AC
132 V DC 270 V DC 480 V DC 825 V DC
Opening time growth factor none
Operating temperature -20...+70 °C
Advantages High energy absorption: good damping - Unpolarized system
Drawback Clipping as from Uvdr*, thus voltage front up to this point
*Uvdr = Varistor operating voltage (voltage dependent resistor), tolerance ± 10 %

RC type RC5-1/50 RC5-1/133 RC5-1/250 RC5-1/440
Rated control circuit voltage Uc 24...50 V AC 50...133 V AC 110...250 V AC 250...440 V AC
Residual overvoltage (clipping voltage) 2 to 3 x Uc max.
Opening time growth factor 2...3
Operating temperature -20...+70 °C
Advantages Very fast clipping - Attenuation of steep fronts and thus of high frequencies

Transil diode RT5/32 RT5/65 RT5/90 RT5/150 RT5/264
Rated control circuit voltage Uc 12...32 V DC 25...65 V DC 50...90 V DC 77...150 V DC 150...264 V DC
Residual overvoltage (clipping voltage) 50 V DC 100 V DC 150 V DC 210 V DC 390 V DC
Opening time growth factor 1.1...1.2
Operating temperature -20...+70 °C
Advantages Good energy absorption - Unpolarized system - Simple, reliable system
Drawback Delay on drop out which does not however reduce contactor breaking capacity
