The P6KE Series is designed specifically to protect sensitive electronic equipment from voltage transients induced by lightning and other transient voltage events. 

## **Features** ~~po~~ 

- 600W peak pulse • Low incremental surge capability at 10/1000μs resistance waveform, repetition rate • Typical IR less than 1μA (duty cycles):0.01% when VBR min>12V 

- Glass passivated chip • High temperature junction in DO-15 Package to reflow soldering 

- • Fast response time: guaranteed: 260°C/40sec typically less than 1.0ps / 0.375”,(9.5mm) lead from 0 Volts to BV min length, 5 lbs., (2.3kg) tension
