PFB LITE

Description

The PFB LITE Peak Surge Suppressor uses carefully selected TVS diodes to absorb dangerous voltage spikes to protect connected components. Peak surge arresters are designed for use with electrolytic capacitors. The capacitor can be mounted directly on it. It prevents the voltage from rising from a certain value by absorbing and absorbing the energy of the power surge. For electric drive systems that use brushless motors and lithium polymer batteries, very high voltage and current peaks will appear. The most well-known way to keep them in an area where they won’t harm other connected loads is to use capacitors. This is actually a very good method. A capacitor suppresses all voltage fluctuations, charging when the voltage rises and discharging when the voltage drops again. In some cases, power surges are too fast for capacitors. These peaks are in the range of nanoseconds and microseconds, and they can easily reach two or three times the normal voltage of the battery. Most consumers can withstand these voltage peaks, even if they are well above the actual maximum voltage rating. If the voltage peak is too strong or repeats over an extended period of time, the voltage regulator, capacitor, and FET can be damaged and fail. A surge suppressor absorbs these voltage peaks and therefore cannot even reach a dangerous voltage.
