Why Buy MOV Disks From Cooper?

Cooper Power Systems has been manufacturing MOV disks for over two decades. We are recognized as an industry leader in the development and production of these highly engineered ceramics.

Our arrester center, located in Olean, NY, USA includes a dedicated, high-volume disk production facility that ranks among the world’s largest for the manufacturing of MOV disks. The highly automated manufacturing process ensures uniform physical and electrical characteristics. This state-of-the-art process begins with computer-controlled mixing of the proprietary powder formulation. Once pressed and sintered into a high-density ceramic, the disk surfaces are precision ground, then coated with full face conductive electrodes using plasma deposition technology.

Making MOV disks allows us to closely control production processes, ensuring that no underperforming disk ever gets into your arrester. The overall quality and durability of our MOV disks is unequaled. Our worldwide arrester manufacturing partners appreciate the value and efficiency that our new high volume, state-of-the-art manufacturing process offers.
