The 2322 59 series is a series of varistors produced by Vishay BCcomponents. The product features include low-β ceramic material and two solid copper leads. It is used for transient suppression.
This data sheet describes the Vishay 2322 59 series zinc‑oxide disc varistors. It lists features such as epoxy coating, straight or flanged leads, and kinked leads, and explains the intended application of transient suppression. The document also details mounting suitability for automatic insertion, cutting and bending equipment, and provides marking conventions and flammability information.
Technical sections cover quick reference data (voltage ranges, transient current ratings, capacitance), ordering information (bulk, tape‑on‑reel, tape‑in‑ammopack), component dimensions, packaging drawings, and detailed electrical characteristics such as thermal resistance and maximum dissipation.
| Maximum continuous voltage (RMS) | 14 V to 680 V |
|---|---|
| Thermal resistance (2322 592) | ≈ 80 K/W |
| Maximum dissipation (2322 592) | 100 mW |
The varistor is suitable for automatic insertion, cutting and bending equipment; flanged leads improve PCB positioning.
Available packaging includes bulk, tape on reel, and tape in ammopack.
No, the varistors are non‑flammable.
