100-KFSV136

Overview of Allen Bradley 100-KFSV136

The Allen Bradley 100-KFSV136 is a front-mounted surge suppressor module designed for use on 100-K, 104-K, and 700-K miniature contactors and relays. Its role is to protect sensitive relay and contactor coils against voltage transients, which can be induced during switching operations. By limiting voltage spikes, the 100-KFSV136 helps ensure a longer operational life for your critical control components while reducing the risk of electrical noise interference within panels. This model is compact and can be easily integrated into control cabinets where panel space is limited. Its compatibility across several Allen Bradley contactor families makes it an efficient choice for standardizing coil protection in OEM machinery, process lines, and building automation panels.

Applications / Use Case

The Allen Bradley 100-KFSV136 is widely applied in industrial and commercial control panels, particularly where voltage transients from electromagnetic devices could damage sensitive equipment or cause system interruptions. This suppressor module is ideal for OEM machine builders, automated conveyor systems, packaging lines, and HVAC control panels requiring enhanced coil protection. By mitigating nuisance tripping and suppressing inductive voltage spikes across contactor and relay coils, it safeguards both the connected devices and control electronics downstream. Integration of the 100-KFSV136 is especially valuable in environments with high-frequency switching, where electrical noise and spikes could otherwise lead to downtime, controller faults, or premature component wear.
