DLTRs (Divertor Leg Test Rig) are fuses that can be used to protect equipment from damage due to voltage spikes. They are commonly used in the semiconductor industry as protection against high-voltage transients. DLTRs are also used in some industrial applications such as AC/DC switching power supplies, motor control circuits, and bus bars.

The DLTR uses a principle of operation called Dynamic Leakage Current Reduction Technology (DLCT). This principle involves reducing the leakage current in a circuit, thereby preventing voltage spikes from occurring. DLTRs are designed to be plugged into existing circuits and can be adjusted to reduce leakage current and provide increased protection for the equipment in the circuit.

DLTRs are composed of a wire-wound resistive element, which is insulated with a ceramic material. The resistive element acts as a voltage regulator, reducing the amount of voltage produced by the circuit. It also reduces the amount of leakage current in the circuit. When a voltage spike occurs, the DLTR limits the increase in voltage by dissipating some of the energy as heat. This heat is dissipated through the ceramic material, preventing any additional voltage from entering the circuit.

When the voltage spike has occurred, the DLTR is designed to reset itself and the voltage level is returned to its original level. This process is known as "dynamic" leakage current reduction. DLTRs can also be used to reduce the amount of power draw from the circuit, thus increasing the reliability of the system.

The advantage of DLTRs compared to regular fuses is that they can be adjusted to provide the desired level of protection in different levels of voltage, while regular fuses are only able to provide one level of protection. Additionally, DLTRs are more reliable and durable than regular fuses, as they are able to reset and protect multiple times. They also require less maintenance, as they are not physically replaced when damaged.

DLTRs are especially useful for applications where the voltage is likely to reach levels that may cause damage. For example, they are used in the medical industry, where high-voltage tests or treatments require the use of voltage levels higher than the standard levels used in most applications. DLTRs can also be used in telecommunications, industrial, or energy distribution systems, where protection is needed to keep the system running in an orderly and safe manner.

In summary, DLTRs are highly specialized fuses designed to provide protection against voltage spikes that may occur in circuits. They are composed of a wire-wound resistive element which is insulated with a ceramic material, and are designed to limit the increase in voltage and protect the equipment from damage. With their adjustable leakage current and power draw, they provide an efficient and reliable protection system for various applications.
