The LA Series of transient voltage surge suppressors are radial-lead varistors (MOVs) that are designed to be operated continuously across AC power lines. These UL recognized varistors require very little mounting space, and are offered in various standard lead form options.
 
The LA Series varistors are available in four model sizes: 7mm, 10mm, 14mm, and 20mm; and have a V M(AC)RMS voltage range from 130V to 1000V, and an energy absorption capability up to 360J. Some LA series model numbers are available with clamping voltage selection, designated by a model number suffix of either A or B. The “A” selection is the standard model; the “B” selection provides a lower clamping voltage.
 
See LA Series Device Ratings and Specifications table for part number and brand information.

pdficon AN9768 Transient Suppression Devices and Principles

This application note discusses the two major categories of transient suppressors: a) those that attenuate transients thus preventing their propagation into the sensitive circuit; and b) those that divert transients away from sensitive loads and so limit the residual voltages.
