5KP48C 48CV 5KP Series 5000 W High-Power Transient Voltage Suppressor Diodes R-6 HORNBY

The 5KP Series is a high-energy family of 5000 W transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diodes engineered for demanding industrial, power distribution, automotive, and communication systems requiring robust surge protection.

Available in unidirectional (A) and bidirectional (CA) configurations, the series provides strong avalanche clamping during lightning surges, inductive load switching spikes, high-energy transients, and ESD/EFT disturbances.
Its rugged R-6 axial, glass-passivated construction ensures excellent thermal stability, long-term reliability, and high surge endurance in harsh electrical environments.
