MDS-D-SVJ3/SPJ3 Series Specifications Manual
6-6 Surge absorber
6-6 Surge absorber
When controlling a magnetic brake of a servomotor in DC OFF circuit, a surge absorber must be installed to
protect the relay contacts and brakes. Commonly a varistor is used.
(1) Selection of varistor
When a varistor is installed in parallel with the coil, the surge voltage can be adsorbed as heat to protect a
circuit. Commonly a 120V product is applied. When the brake operation time is delayed, use a 220V product.
Always confirm the operation with an actual machine.
(2) Specifications
Select a varistor with the following or equivalent specifications. To prevent short-circuiting, attach a flame
resistant insulation tube, etc., onto the leads as shown in the following outline dimension drawing.
Varistor specifications
(Note 1) Selection condition: When ON/OFF frequency is 10 times/min or less, and exciting current is 2A or
less

Normally use a product with 120V varistor voltage. If there is no allowance for the brake operation
time, use the 220V product. A varistor whose voltage exceeds 220V cannot be used, as such varistor
will exceed the specifications of the relay in the unit.
