MOV 200k 14VDC 22VAC (10 Pack)

MOVs are commonly used in circuits to protect the circuit from spikes and surges that may occur when the power line is unstable. They are very similar to a Zenner diode, but they can operate at a much higher speed than a Zenner diode. They are commonly used in power supplies, surge protectors and other electronic equipment that requires a very stable output line.  Many industries also make use of MOVs to shield motor drivers from outside disturbances or voltage spikes that may occur.

A MOV can operate under DC or AC conditions. The DC voltage rating for this specific MOV is 22V and the AC voltage rating for this MOV is 22V.
