Gas Discharge Tube Arresters (GDT) are used to protect electrical systems from both overvoltage and overcurrent conditions caused by lightning strikes, accidental contact with overhead power lines, and power grid switching operations. The 2036-15-SM-RP GDT is designed to provide reliable protection in a wide variety of applications, including residential, commercial, and industrial settings. This article will provide an overview of the 2036-15-SM-RP GDT and discuss its application field and working principle.

Application Field of 2036-15-SM-RP GDT

The 2036-15-SM-RP GDT is primarily designed for protecting low voltage circuits, including single-phase and three-phase electrical systems and circuits, as well as high speed data lines. It is also frequently used in critical power applications such as oil platforms, wind turbines, solar energy systems, and data centers. The GDT is typically equipped with accessories, such as surge counter, voltage switch, and overvoltage protection, depending on the customer’s needs. All accessories are covered by a single point warranty, which makes the product much more cost effective for customers.

Working Principle of 2036-15-SM-RP GDT

The 2036-15-SM-RP GDT uses gas discharge tubes to provide overvoltage protection, which is triggered by a variation in the passing current. The gas discharge tube consists of two electrodes: anode and cathode. The gas in the tube between the electrodes serves as an insulator, preventing current from flowing until the voltage rises above a certain level, which is known as the “breakdown voltage”. Ideally, the breakdown voltage is equal to or higher than the maximum steady-state voltage that the system can handle. When the system voltage rises above this level, the gas is ionized and current begins passing through the gas discharge tube, thus protecting the system from any further overvoltage.

In addition, the 2036-15-SM-RP GDT includes a surge counter, which monitors the number of times the tube has been triggered in order to provide information for preventive maintenance purposes. It also features an adjustable voltage switch, which automatically trips the system when the main voltage exceeds a certain level in order to prevent system damage from further high voltages. Finally, it is equipped with overvoltage protection, which isolates the system from any further high voltage events.

Conclusion

The 2036-15-SM-RP GDT is designed to provide reliable protection for low voltage power systems and circuits. Its gas discharge tube functions as an overvoltage protector, while additional features – such as surge counter, voltage switch, and overvoltage protection – provide added protection from any further high voltage events. As a result, it is suitable for a variety of applications, ranging from residential, commercial, and industrial settings, all the way to critical power applications like oil platforms, wind turbines, and solar energy systems.
