Gas Discharge Tube Arresters (GDT) are elements used to protect electrical equipment against transient overvoltages. GDTs act by redirecting surge energy through a discharge path, without modifying the main power circuit. GDTs are suitable for protection of cables, lines, telecommunications circuits, public and private power networks, and control circuits. The 2038-80-SM-RPLF is a type of GDT that can be used to protect electrical circuits from damage due to power outages and other electrical surges.

The 2038-80-SM-RPLF GDT consists of a metal enclosure with two electrodes. Inside the enclosure is a gas-discharge tube filled with a safe, inert gas at low pressure. When the voltage reaches the limiting value of the GDT, the electric field strength in the gas becomes so high that electrons in the gas begin to ionize, thus allowing a current to flow through the tube. The electrons ionize more gas molecules, emitting more electrons in a chain reaction, eventually resulting in the formation of a high-current arc followed by a spark-over. This process creates a low-impedance path, providing effective protection from transient overvoltages. The arc is quickly extinguished as soon as the voltage drops below the limiting value.

The 2038-80-SM-RPLF also offers a number of specific features which differentiate it from other GDTs,such as a special voltage-limiting characteristic and clamping voltage. The voltage-limiting characteristic ensures that the GDT will not be subjected to a voltage greater than a predetermined value, regardless of the magnitude of the transient overvoltages. This limits the amount of energy that can be discharged by the GDT, preventing damage from excessive overvoltages. The clamping voltage ensures that the GDT will only clamp transient overvoltages below a determined value, allowing normal operations at higher voltages.

In addition to its voltage-limiting and clamping capabilities, the 2038-80-SM-RPLF also offers multiple mounting and wiring installation options. The GDT can be mounted on a wall or panel, or it can be mounted directly onto electrical equipment capacitors and motors. Its robust mechanical construction offers dependable protection from physical damage, as well as reducing the risk of shock. The GDT also offers quick and easy wiring installation, with an integrated terminal block for easy connection of the two electrodes.

The 2038-80-SM-RPLF is a highly effective GDT for protection of electrical circuits from power outages and other surges. It provides a reliable and efficient means of limiting transient overvoltages, while also providing multiple mounting and wiring installation options for added convenience. Its robust construction and simple design make the 2038-80-SM-RPLF an ideal choice for protection of electrical circuits.
