Product details

1.5 kW peak pulse, 342 V standoff — the clamping envelope that protects 400 V DC rails

The 1.5KE400A-HF: Its 342 V reverse standoff voltage and 548 V maximum clamping at 2.72 A peak pulse current define the protection window for 400 V DC bus rails, industrial power supplies, and telecom rectifier outputs. The 380 V minimum breakdown voltage ensures the device starts conducting before the rail exceeds the downstream components' absolute maximum rating, while the 548 V clamp holds the transient below the typical 600 V MOSFET avalanche threshold.

DO-201 axial package — through-hole mounting for high-surge board positions

The operating junction temperature range spans -55°C to 150°C, covering industrial enclosures and outdoor telecom cabinets without derating at the hot end.

Power line protection is not supported — this is a general-purpose transient suppressor, not a dedicated AC mains protector. For line-to-line or line-to-ground clamping on 240 VAC or 480 VAC circuits, select a TVS rated for continuous AC voltage stress.

Frequently asked questions

Is the 1.5KE400A-HF suitable for 400 V DC bus protection?

Yes. With a 342 V reverse standoff voltage and a 380 V minimum breakdown, it triggers before a 400 V nominal bus rises into the 500–600 V range where downstream MOSFETs or IGBTs would avalanche. The 548 V clamp keeps the transient below typical 600 V device ratings.
