NOTE: Average power dissipation of transients not exceed 1.5W, 2.0W and 2.5W for model 32mm, 40mm and 60mm, respectively.
1. Peak current applies to applications rated up to 115VRMS. Peak Current is 30kA for applications greater than 115VRMS.
2. Peak current applies to applications rated up to 132VRMS. Peak Current is 30kA for applications greater than 132VRMS.
Power Dissipation Ratings
Should transients occur in rapid succession, the average power
dissipation result is the energy (watt-seconds) per pulse times the
number of pulses per second. The power so developed must be within
the specifications shown on the Device Ratings and Specifications table
for the specific device. Furthermore, the operating values need to be
derated at high temperatures as shown in Figure 1. Because varistors
can only dissipate a relatively small amount of average power they are,
100
therefore, not suitable for repetitive applications that involve substantial
90
amounts of average power dissipation.

TIME
O1 = Virtual Origin of Wave
T = Time From 10% to 90% of Peak
T1 = Virtual Front Time = 1.25 • t
T2 = Virtual Time to Half Value (Impulse Duration)
Example: For an 8/20µs Current Waveform:
8µs = T1 = Virtual Front Time
20µs = T2 = Virtual Time to Half Value
