Gas Discharge Tube Arresters (GDT) are electrical protection devices that protect valuable equipment and personnel from harmful electrical events such as surges, voltage spikes, and overvoltage. They are designed to divert a surge of current away from valuable assets, and thus protect them from damage.

CG2230LS is GDT arrester which contains two cells connected in parallel, two trigger diodes for trigger protection. It has a high transient energy handling capacity, which allows it to safely protect against transient overvoltage events. It also has a low capacitance and low insertion loss, making it an ideal choice for protecting sensitive equipment from destructive transients.

The main application field for CG2230LS GDT arresters is power line protection, such as protecting power grid lines and other electrical equipment connected to the grid. The arrester will divert the surge of current away from the connected equipment, thus protecting them from damage. CG2230LS’s can also be used in sensitive electronic equipment, such as computers, medical equipment, and communication systems.

The working principle of the CG2230LS GDT arrester involves a voltage or current strike. When a voltage or current strike occurs, the arrester is triggered, diverting the surge of current away from the equipment. The arrester then blocks the flow of current, which protects the connected equipment from damage.

The GDT arrester also contains two gas tubes. When a voltage or current strike occurs, the arrester triggers and the gas tube is filled with gas. This gas travels through the gas tube and releases its energy into the atmosphere. This energy is absorbed by the atmosphere and dissipates safely, preventing damage to the equipment.

While the CG2230LS GDT arrester offers a reliable method of protecting against destructive surges, its use is limited to voltage and current strikes resulting from transient overvoltage events. It is not designed for more severe events, such as spikes from lightning strikes or surges from electro-static discharge. For these events, more robust surge protection devices should be used.

In conclusion, CG2230LS GDT arresters can provide effective protection against voltage and current strikes from transient overvoltage events, by diverting the surge of current away from connected equipment and then blocking the flow of current. The GDT arrester can also absorb the energy from a voltage or current strike, thus preventing damage to the equipment. However, the CG2230LS GDT arrester is not designed for more destructive events such as lightning strikes.
