LNP20C-A1800AC-6C surge arrester. Source: TDK TDK Corporation has introduced gas-filled EPCOS surge arresters for use in base stations. The components have three terminals and are able to extinguish over-voltages both from L to PE as well as N to PE. The LNP20C-A1800AC-6C surge arrester is designed for an operating voltage of 250 VAC. It meets the IEC 61643-11 requirements for classes I and II; with a wave form of 8/20 µs, it offers a maximum discharge current of 16 kA (class II).In order to offer the necessary over-voltage protection, the surge arrester is designed for a follow current of 1 kA. The response time is less than 100 ns. The RoHS-compatible component with the ordering code B88069X4023B201 is RoHS compatible, measures 39 mm × 25.2 mm × 27.5 mm, and its insulation resistance is 1 GΩ at 100 V DC.
