Gas Discharge Tube Arresters (GDT) is an electrical device consisting of gases and metals which can safely disperse extremely high voltage surges. The 2087-180-SM-RPLF GDT is widely used to protect electronic equipment in hazardous areas from electric shocks, and to provide overvoltage protection for sensitive circuit components.The working principle of the 2087-180-SM-RPLF GDT is based on the fact that when a massive voltage surge passes through the device, it causes a stream of electrons to form in the gas discharge tube, which is also called a spark gap. The spark gap exists between two electrodes, called the inner and outer electrodes. The primary function of the spark gap is to maintain sufficient potential difference between the two electrodes, which is typically limited to 10kV.Once the voltage applied to the gap exceeds the breakdown voltage of the spark gap, a spark begins to form, and the voltage is discharged into the atmosphere. This process occurs almost instantly and allows the discharge to take place safely. The spark also removes the majority of the surge energy, and thus limits the surge voltage to a much lower voltage which can safely be applied to the protected equipment.GDTs are highly effective at dealing with voltage transients, and are responsible for almost all the overvoltage protection in today\'s electronic equipment. They are primarily used in outdoor applications where they can provide invaluable protection from electrical surges caused by lightning strikes and power utility switching. GDTs are also often used in industrial control circuits, where they protect sensitive instrumentation and automation equipment from voltage transients as well as overloads.The use of GDTs has extended beyond power applications in recent years, and they are also used in the protection circuits of telecom networks. This is due to their ability to offer effective overvoltage protection against lightning surges, switching transients, and accidental contact between high-voltage power lines and lower voltage telecom loops.The 2087-180-SM-RPLF GDT has several distinct characteristics, all of which enhance its efficacy and durability. Firstly, it has a fast response time, allowing it to respond to voltage surges and transient events within a few microseconds. Secondly, its surge voltage withstand capability is superior to most GDTs, due to its high rupture threshold and good energy-handling capability. Lastly, the 2087-180-SM-RPLF GDT has a long life span; it can be used to protect electrical equipment for decades without service or repair.The 2087-180-SM-RPLF GDT is one of the most reliable and efficient technologies for reducing voltage transients, protecting electrical and electronic equipment, and providing reliable overvoltage protection in both hazardous outdoor and industrial control environments. It is designed to quickly and safely dissipate the energy of electrical fault surges into the atmosphere, limiting the surge voltage applied to the protected equipment. Its fast response time, good surge withstand capability, and long operating lifespan make it an invaluable asset for those seeking robust electrical system protection.
