The 114V breakdown minimum means the device starts conducting at that threshold, protecting downstream components. The 168V clamp at 8.9A is the maximum voltage the load sees during a surge — design your rail to survive that peak.
The DO-13 package is a through-hole, hermetic-style metal can — common in military and industrial designs where board-level reliability matters.
It is listed as a Zener diode, but its 1500W peak pulse rating and clamping behaviour make it functionally similar to a TVS for transient suppression. Use it where you need both Zener regulation and surge clamping in one device.
It is supplied in a DO-13 through-hole package, supplied in Bulk. The DO-13 is a metal can with two axial leads, rated for -55°C to 175°C junction temperature.
