2035-09-B5LF

The 2035-09-B5LF is a Gas Discharge Tube Arresters (GDT) used to protect electrical power systems from transient voltage levels. It is an extremely effective way of protecting systems from destructive surges without hampering normal operation. This arrester is specifically designed to meet performance standards related to protection against induced voltage transients, such as those caused by lightning. In this article, we will discuss the application field and working principle of the 2035-09-B5LF Gas Discharge Tube Arresters (GDT).

Application Field

The 2035-09-B5LF Gas Discharge Tube Arresters (GDT) can be used in a variety of applications, including:

• Substations
• Medium and high voltage power systems
• Marine, offshore, and shoreline installations
• Telecommunication systems
• Industrial automation systems
• Viaducts, tunnels, and bridges
• Remote Area Networks (RANs)
• Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SDH) networks

The 2035-09-B5LF Gas Discharge Tube Arresters (GDT) can also be used in areas subjected to high noise and harsh electromagnetic environment. Its characteristics guarantee high reliability and protection in those areas.

Working Principle

The working principle of the 2035-09-B5LF Gas Discharge Tube Arresters (GDT) is based on the use of gas discharge tubes (GDTs). These tubes are filled with a gas that ionizes when a potential difference is created across its terminals. When an electrical surge enters the power system, it passes through the GDT, which acts as an energy-absorbing device. As the energy passes through the tube, it triggers a rapid rise in pressure and heat, causing the gas contained in the tube to quickly ionize. The ionization of the gas creates a conductive path from one terminal of the GDT to the other, which effectively dissipates the surge energy. The surge energy is temporarily stored in the tube and dissipated when the voltage state of the system returns to normal.

When the voltage state of the system returns to normal, the gas contained in the tube will slowly bleed off the stored energy, allowing the system to reset. This process effectively protects the system from voltage transients by dissipating the energy of the surges before it can reach the system’s sensitive components.

The 2035-09-B5LF Gas Discharge Tube Arresters (GDT) also feature a delayed turn-on voltage, which allows the GDT to begin conduction several nanoseconds after the surge occurs. This delay in turn-on gives the arrester time to absorb the majority of the surge energy before any damage can be caused to the system’s sensitive components.

In summary, the 2035-09-B5LF Gas Discharge Tube Arresters (GDT) provide effective protection from transient voltage levels. They are designed for use in a variety of applications, including power systems, telecommunication systems, industrial automation systems, and remote area networks. When an electrical surge enters the power system, the GDTs in the arrester absorb the energy and dissipate it. This prevents the surge from causing damage to the system’s sensitive components and helps maintain the stability of the system.
