Profile: Maida Development Company is a manufacturer and supplier of components for the electronic industry. We manufacture zinc oxide varistors, multi-layer varistors, PTC and NTC thermisitors & ceramic disk capacitors. Our varistor products include standard series, low profile series, high energy series, HC series, SMV series, thermally protected and multilayer series. Our thermally protected varistor series is designed for safe disconnection of the varistor from the circuit due to abnormal operating conditions. These components consist of 2 or 3 leaded wire leads, a thermal disconnect and have nominal diameters of 14mm, 20mm & 25mm. Voltage ranges from 60VAC- 750VAC with peak surge currents of 4.5kA/6kA (14mm), 10kA (20mm) and 18kA (25mm). Thermally protected series is designed to MDC handle similar through-hole applications as a FV standard varistor. Our standard series of varistors are square in shape allowing them to fit into smaller spaces than the equivalent round varistors. They offer a lower seating height and smaller width on the PC board. Voltages series range from 130VAC to 1000VAC. The low profile series is available in bulk and industry standard tape & reel configurations for automatic insertion.
