Gas Discharge Tube Arresters (GDT) are essential components of any power supply system that are designed to provide effective protection against lightning surge voltages, power frequency surges and other transient overvoltages. They are used to redirect and dissipate the energy of the incoming transient voltage, thus preventing it from damaging or destroying the equipment connected to the power supply system. GDTs are typically divided into two main categories: non-linear resistive GDTs and linear resistive GDTs. These two categories can be further divided into different types of GDTs based on their construction and operation parameters. As an example, one type of GDT, 2038-80-SM-RP, has gained its fame due to its unique application field and working principle.

The 2038-80-SM-RP arresters operate via the non-linear resistive design principle. Components of this type of arrester are designed and engineered to provide a very wide electrical current capability. The components are composed of a cathode tube which releases a certain amount of electron current when the voltage reaches a certain level, and an anode tube which is normally the electrode for the cathode tube and controls the time the device will remain active. Once the current between the anode and cathode becomes excessive or the current reaches a predetermined level, the device becomes inactive until the voltage level drops to a safe level. This is why this type of arrester is called a non-linear resistive GDT.

Due to its unique operation principle, the 2038-80-SM-RP arresters are able to offer a wide range of applications. Firstly, they are especially suitable for providing lightning protection for towers, wooden poles and other such structures when there are no other alternatives. Secondly, they can be used as surge protectors for computers, telecommunications equipment and other electrical devices. Thirdly, GDTs can be used to protect manufacturing lines and industrial plants from transient overvoltages. Finally, GDTs can be used in power utility systems to protect transformers, substations, and other electrical facilities from lightning and surge voltages.

The working principle behind 2038-80-SM-RP arresters is also quite unique. The main components of the device are the cathode tube and the anode tube. When a voltage reaches a certain threshold, the cathode tube releases electrons and charges up the anode tube. This increases the current between the two electrodes until the current reaches a predetermined level. Once that level is reached, the device becomes inactive until the voltage level is reduced below the safety level. This allows the device to provide the necessary protection from currents and voltages, while also efficiently dissipating any unwanted energy.

The 2038-80-SM-RP GDTs are able to provide effective protection against both lightning surge voltages and power frequency surges. The device is very reliable and long-lasting due to its unique design and construction parameters, and is designed with a high degree of safety. It is especially well-suited for applications in areas where lightning or other transient overvoltages are expected, as it is able to effectively protect against such occurrences. For all of these reasons, the 2038-80-SM-RP GDT has gained a great deal of popularity in many different industries where power supplies and power protection are critical.
