CG2470LSNTR

Gas Discharge Tube Arresters (GDT) are small devices used to protect electrical equipment from high magnitude lightning strikes or other transients. The CG2470LSNTR is a GDT device designed to handle extreme voltage events. It has a wide range of applications in commercial, industrial, and aerospace applications.

The CG2470LSNTR is a GDT designed to work in both surge protection and lightning protection applications. The device contains two or three electrodes within an insulating material, detached from each other and mounted in an insulating housing. When a high voltage event occurs, the electrodes ionize the air surrounding them, triggering an avalanche breakdown of the gas in the discharge tubes. This creates a low-resistance path for current to flow through and helps protect the equipment from damage.

In addition to lightning protection, the CG2470LSNTR is also used for surge protection applications. The device is designed to handle a wide range of high-energy transients and can be used in multiple series or parallel configurations to create the desired protection level. Surges can be caused by external sources such as machines, power lines, and electromagnetic radiation. The CG2470LSNTR can protect against these high-energy transients, resulting in enhanced system reliability.

The GDT device also provides a very short response time due to its small size and low capacitance. This allows it to respond quickly to voltage transients, providing a reliable and responsive protection system. The device is available in a variety of models, which can be configured for a variety of voltage and current ratings. The CG2470LSNTR is also designed to exceed t-code tests, ensuring its high performance and reliability in extreme conditions.

The CG2470LSNTR is a versatile and reliable protection device. Its unique design and wide operating range make it ideal for many commercial, industrial, and aerospace applications. The device’s low capacitance, fast response time, and response to extreme voltage events makes it ideal for protecting electrical systems from high magnitude lightning strikes, surges, and other voltage transients.
