Zener TVS for 26V rail protection — 600W peak pulse
The SMBJ26CE3/TR13: It clamps transients to a maximum of 46.6V at the peak pulse current of 12.4A.
Breakdown, clamping, and temperature envelope
The 28.9V minimum breakdown ensures the TVS does not conduct during normal 26V operation — a 2.9V margin above the standoff. The 46.6V clamping ceiling at 12.4A peak pulse current gives the board designer a clear upper bound for the downstream component's absolute maximum rating.
