Gas Discharge Tube Arresters (GDT) are high-voltage surge protectors used to protect fragile electronic and electrical devices from power surges, lightning strikes and other electrical disturbances. They are typically used in telecommunications, power distribution systems, industrial, military and other high-voltage applications. GDTs have been used since the early 1900s and have gained widespread acceptance in the last few decades as one of the most reliable and cost-effective ways to protect sensitive electrical systems from power fluctuations and lightning strikes.

2038-35-SM GDT represents one of the most popular types of GDT, as it has a reliable high-voltage pulse absorption and a remarkable operational lifespan. The operating principle behind the 2038-35-SM is a protection mechanism that utilizes the high-voltage conduction capacity of an air spark gap. The device is composed of a galvanized steel body, two valves, and an insulating ceramic core. The valves act as a switch that controls the flow of current between the silicon rod and the air gap.

When an incoming surge of electricity is detected, the two valves are activated, one opens and the other closes. This action forms a closed looped circuit that passes the current through the air spark gap. When a sufficiently high voltage surge is detected, the spark gap closes, preventing the surge from reaching all downstream components. This prevents damage to connected devices and personnel.

The high-voltage capacity of the 2038-35-SM GDT is up to 35kV, making it an important tool in the protection of high-voltage electronic and telecommunication systems. It is important to realize that any surge protector can experience degradation in the event of a powerful surge, so the 2038-35-SM must be installed in accordance with manufacturer recommendations for best performance. For best results, the 2038-35-SM should be located at an entry or exit point of the system, depending on the type of protection that is desired.

The 2038-35-SM GDT offers an additional safety feature in that it can act as a warning system for use with fault indicators. When the spark gap closes, an indicator will usually light up, alerting personnel to a surge event. In this way, repairs or preventative measures can be taken should an occurrence of electrical surges arise.

In conclusion, the 2038-35-SM GDT is well-suited for the protection of high-voltage electronic and telecommunication systems from power surges and lightning strikes. Its operation relies on the air spark gap to provide valuable protection from damaging surges. Its additional fault indicator provides personnel with a warning to take preventative or remedial action. As such, the 2038-35-SM is an important device to include in modern surge protection systems.
