Ceramic Capacitor 105pF 470V 471K 5pcs

The Ceramic Capacitor 105pF 470V 471K sold here is a 471K metal oxide varistor (MOV), supplied in a pack of 5. It looks like a ceramic disc capacitor, but it works as a voltage-dependent resistor: below about 470 V it passes almost no current, and above that its resistance drops sharply so it clamps surges and spikes. The 471K is a common choice for 230–240 V mains equipment and gives a little more headroom than the 431K where the supply voltage often runs high.

Ceramic Capacitor 105pF 470V 471K Varistor Specifications

• Component type: metal oxide varistor (MOV), disc type with two leads
• Marking code: 471K (47 × 10¹ = 470 V, K = ±10%)
• Varistor voltage: 470 V ±10% (about 423–517 V), measured at 1 mA DC
• Maximum continuous voltage: 300 V AC or 385 V DC
• Capacitance (as listed): 105 pF
• Polarity: none, works in both directions
• Pack size: 5 pieces

471K Varistor Applications

• Surge protection on 230–240 V AC mains inputs where the supply often runs high
• Power supplies, inverters and UPS input stages
• Surge protector strips and appliance repairs
• Spike suppression across motors, relays and contactor coils
• Protecting equipment on unstable generator supplies

What's in the Box

• 5 × 471K metal oxide varistors

Tip: Choose the 471K over the 431K when the mains voltage often swings close to 275 V, as a varistor that runs near its limit heats up and ages faster. Always place it after a fuse, and disconnect the power before working on mains wiring.
