2038-15-SMLF Application Field and Working Principle

Gas Discharge Tube Arresters (GDT) are powered electrical devices that protect machines and circuits from transients produced by lightning or other extraneous impulse voltage. GDTs are primarily found in the electrical and communication industries as they are used to protect vital electronics from internal and/or external voltage surges and overvoltages. 2038-15-SMLF GDTs are versatile and rugged, meeting the requirements for a variety of applications.

What is a 2038-15-SMLF?

2038-15-SMLF GDTs are stand-alone devices commonly mounted on the top of towers, buildings, poles, radio towers, or other locations where it will be exposed to high voltage and impulse radiation while maintaining a uniform electrical field. They offer a fast response time and are characterized by their small size, low inductance, and high peak voltage ratings.

How Does a 2038-15-SMLF Work?

The working principle of a 2038-15-SMLF GDT is simple. When an overvoltage occurs, the GDT is triggered and a spark gap formed between the two electrodes. This spark gap is capable of absorbing the electrical energy and dissipating it in the form of heat, thus protecting the protected systems. The spark gap provides an effective protection against 30,000 volts, with a spark gap resistance not exceeding 5 ohms.

2038-15-SMLF Applications

2038-15-SMLF GDTs are widely used in many industries such as telecommunications, petroleum, automotive, transportation, power systems, aviation maintenance, medical, and in military applications. They can be used to protect equipment and systems from such events as lightning strikes, short circuits, power outages, power surges, voltage spikes, and other electrical transients.In the telecommunications industry, for example, a 2038-15-SMLF GDT is used for the protection of radio and cellular towers, radio repeater systems, and other communication networks. In the petroleum industry, it is used for protecting pumps, drilling rigs, and other production equipment. In the automotive industry, it is used for service station refueling pumps, electric vehicles, and other automotive systems.A 2038-15-SMLF GDT may also be used in medical and military applications to protect delicate equipment, patient safety, and other vital systems from transient electrical activity.

Conclusion

Gas Discharge Tube Arresters (GDTs) are an important device for protecting machines and circuits from transient voltage surges or overvoltage. 2038-15-SMLF GDTs are suitable for a variety of applications, including the telecommunications, petroleum, automotive, and medical industries. They provide fast response time and a high peak voltage rating of 30,000 volts. The spark gap formed between the two electrodes acts to absorb the electrical energy from the overvoltage and dissipate it in the form of heat, thus protecting any protected systems behind it.
