Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: What is the lead pitch for the MOV-241K/14D 14mm disc varistor?
A: Standard lead pitch for a 14mm disc varistor is typically 7.5mm.

Q: Can the MOV-241K/14D replace a 10D241K varistor?
A: While both have a 240V nominal voltage, the 14D has a larger disc diameter (14mm vs 10mm) and potentially higher surge current capability. Physical fitment and surge rating must be verified for replacement.

Q: What is the maximum continuous operating voltage for this varistor?
A: The maximum continuous DC operating voltage is 240V.

Q: What does the 'K' in 14D241K signify?
A: The 'K' indicates a varistor voltage tolerance of ±10%.

Q: Is the MOV-241K/14D polarity sensitive?
A: No, Metal Oxide Varistors (MOVs) are non-polar devices and can be installed in either orientation.
