Transient Protection
MOV– Metal Oxide Varistor Connectors
• Filter connector size package
• Protection for 14, 31, 38 DC voltage circuits
• Radiation hardened
• No additional circuits required
• Low impedance
• Increased reliability
• Nanosecond response time
• Elimination of costly external
suppression assemblies
The Amphenol ^® MOV Connector offers the versatility of a
standard connector, with transient protection for sensitive
circuits.Transients in electrical circuits caused by a sudden
release of stored energy can originate within or outside of
the circuit and may be repeatable or random.
Regardless of frequency or origin, transient caused failures
generated by load switching, lightning, electrostatic
discharge (ESD) and electromagnetic pulse (EMP) can
destroy unprotected IC components.
Compatible with present filter connector assembly
procedures, MOVs can be combined with existing filters.
Internal housing of the MOV offers weight and space savings
over other protection methods available today, and
eliminates costly and bulky exterior suppression
mechanisms in appropriate situations. MOVs are presently
available in contact sizes 22, 20 and 16.
Transient protection can be provided in receptacle, plug or
adapter configuration. These connectors are intermateable
and intermountable with the following MIL-Specs:
• MIL-DTL-5015
• MIL-DTL-26482
• MIL-DTL-26500
• MIL-DTL-27599
• MIL-DTL-38999
• MIL-DTL-83723
