Product details

TransZorb® TVS for 24V rail clamping

The 1.5KE24C-E3/73: Its 19.4 V reverse standoff voltage and 21.6 V minimum breakdown mean it stays transparent during normal operation and starts conducting only when the rail rises above the threshold.

Clamping and current handling

The 1500 W rating at 10/1000 µs is the standard TVS power metric; for shorter pulses the device can absorb higher peak currents without exceeding the 175 °C junction temperature limit.

Supplied in the DO-201AA (DO-27) axial-lead package, through-hole mounted. The 1.5KE package suffix indicates the standard DO-201 footprint. Tape & Box (TB) packaging suits hand-insertion or low-volume assembly; the axial leads are trimmed for through-hole PCB or terminal strip mounting.
