PTC thermistor for telecom apparatus circuit protection-MZ2 series

PTC thermistor for circuit protection of telecom main distribution frame (MDF) MZ21 series
Brief Introduction of PTC thermistor for circuit protection of telecom apparatus:
Advanced developments in telecom equipment in rencent years have radically altered the protection requirements for both exchange and subscriber
equipment.The PTC thermistor must protect telephone line circuit against overcurrent,which mainly caused by the following examples:
1)surges due to lighting strikes on or near to the line plant;
2)short-term induction of alternating voltage from adjacent power lines of railway systems,usually caused when these lines or systems occur faults;
3)direct contact between telephone lines and power lines.

Product Application of PTC thermistor for circuit protection of telecom apparatus:
1. Main distribution frame (MDF)
2. Telecom equipment
3. Telephone

Working principle of PTC thermistor for circuit protection of telecom apparatus:
To provide good protection under such conditions a PTC thermistor is connnected in series with eachline.Usually as secondary protection;However,even with primary circuit protection(usually a gas discharge tube),the PTC thermistor must fulfill severe requirements.Surge pulses of up to 2 KV can occur and in order to withstand short-term power induction the PTC thermistor withstand high voltage.If the line has primary protection,a 220V to 300V PTC thermistor is adequate.Without primary protection,600V PTC thermistor is necessary.The restricting overload protection PTC Thermistor is connected in series in the overloading circuit. when the circuit is in the normal working state , the current flowing through the PTC Thermistor is not high enough to make the temperature exceed the Curie temperature for circuit protection ,and the PTC Thermistor is always in the low resistance state. When the circuit breaks down and the circuit current increases a lot,the resistance of restricting overload protection PTC Thermistor heating sharply until the circuit is “cut off” relatively to achieve circuit protection purpose. After clearing the circuit trouble, the PTC Thermistor begins to cool and come back to the state of low resistance,and then the circuit enters normal working condition. When the circuit breaks down next time, the PTC Thermistor can enter the state of circuit
protection again.

Advantages of PTC thermistor for circuit protection of telecom apparatus:
