M51-A230X Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The EPCOS M51-A230X is a 2-electrode surge arrester with a nominal DC spark-over voltage of 230V ± 20V. It offers a high current rating with a peak pulse current capability of 10 kA (8/20 µs) and a service life of up to 10 operations at 5 kA.

 

This surge arrester is characterized by its very small size, fast response time, and stable performance over its life. It has a high insulation resistance greater than 1 GΩ at 100 VDC and a very low capacitance of less than 1 pF at 1 MHz.

 

The operating temperature range is from -40°C to +90°C. The device is RoHS-compatible and suitable for applications such as branch exchange, line protection, subscriber protection, and alarm systems. It is supplied in bulk packaging with through-hole mounting and axial termination.

 

Key electrical specifications include an impulse spark-over voltage of less than 550V at 100 V/µs and a typical arc voltage of approximately 15V at 1A. The glow to arc transition current is around 0.5A, with a glow voltage of approximately 60V.
