2036-23-C6F

Gas Discharge Tube Arresters (GDT) are a critical element in a variety of electrical systems, often protecting against potentially dangerous overvoltage surges in power and telecoms networks. The 2036-23-C6F is one such device, providing increased protection for sensitive electronics against surges.

The 2036-23-C6F is a one piece gas discharge tube arrester that can protect against high voltage and fast transients. It consists of a valve element made of metal electrodes, encapsulated in an dielectric material. Inside the tube, gas discharge elements are used to transfer current between the electrodes. During normal operation the valve element is held in a standby state, and current flow is prevented by the dielectric material. When an overvoltage surge occurs, the dielectric material breaks down, allowing current to flow through the gas discharge elements and so dissipate the surge.

Though designed to withstand voltage levels beyond 15kV, the 2036-23-C6F is a relatively compact device with a range of mounting options, enabling it to be incorporated into a variety of systems with minimal disruption. It is also temperature rated, allowing it to be used in a variety of environments. The 2036-23-C6F is UL1449 approved, and is designed to meet IEC 61643-21, as well as other international standards.

In summary, the 2036-23-C6F Gas Discharge Tube Arrester is a compact and highly effective device for protecting against voltage surges in a range of electrical systems. Its one piece construction, approved standards and wide temperature range make it a reliable and cost-effective solution for both industrial and residential applications.
