CG2800MS Gas Discharge Tube Arresters

Gas Discharge Tube Arresters (GDT) are a type of surge protecting device which helps protect electrical systems from the damaging effects of transient currents due to lightning, switching and faults in the power system. The CG2800MS gas discharge tube arrester is a common GDT which is used to protect electronics in a wide variety of fields and applications.

The Operating Principle of a GDT

At the heart of a GDT is a metal oxide varistor (MOV). This metal-oxide-semiconductor structure is designed to allow a sudden surge of current to pass through it when triggered by a high voltage. When this surge passes through, the MOV releases a breakdown voltage which is just enough to trigger the MOV. Once this breakdown voltage is passed the Metal Oxide Varistor becomes an insulator or nonconductor, blocking any further high voltage surges.The CG2800MS arrester is composed of two types of metal-oxide varistors encased in a cylindrical tube which helps protect the varistors from physical damage and from environmental contaminants. The CG2800MS arrester is also equipped with a voltage sensing element which helps to further protect the MOV from damage by sensing the amount of incoming electrical energy and then discharging it safely if it exceeds the arrester’s pre-set threshold voltage.

Applications for the CG2800MS Arrester

The CG2800MS arrester can be used in a wide variety of applications for protecting equipment from transient surges and lightning induced surges. Some of the most common applications for the CG2800MS arrester include:-Electrical Substations: The CG2800MS arrester is often used to protect electrical substations and electrical equipment from lightning induced surges that can cause significant damage to the equipment. The CG2800MS arrester can also help reduce the risk of corona effects and other damaging phenomena at substations.-Communication Systems: The CG2800MS arrester is a common choice for protecting communication systems from transient surge phenomena such as lightning, thunderstorms and extreme conditions associated with switching events. The MOV helps protect against overvoltages which can cause significant damage to communication systems.-Industrial Plants: The MOV in the CG2800MS helps to protect industrial equipment and plants from high voltage surge currents due to lightning, switch events and other extreme conditions.-Renewable Energy Systems: The MOV helps protect renewable energy systems such as photovoltaic (PV) panels, wind turbines and hydroelectric plants from transient surge currents. The MOV helps protect the systems from being damaged or disrupted by high energy transient currents.-Automotive Applications: The CG2800MS arrester can also be used in automotive applications for helping to protect a wide range of components from transient surge currents.

Advantages of the CG2800MS

The use of the CG2800MS arrester offers a wide range of advantages over other types of GDTs and surge protectors. Some of the advantages of the CG2800MS include:-The CG2800MS is a two-piece design with a cylindrical shell which helps protect the MOVs from physical damage and environmental contaminants.-The MOV is a three-terminal device which helps to further increase protection from transient surge currents.-The voltage sensing element helps to further protect the MOV from damage by sensing the amount of incoming electrical energy and then discharging it safely if it exceeds the arrester’s pre-set threshold voltage.-The CG2800MS can handle high voltage transients up to 10,000 V and can effectively block high current transients up to 35 kA.-The CG2800MS is designed for use in various temperature conditions, ranging from -55°C to +125°C.-The CG2800MS arrester is competitively priced and offers a low Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) when compared to other GDTs on the market.

Conclusion

Overall, the CG2800MS arrester is a reliable and cost-effective solution for protecting sensitive equipment from transient surge currents. Its two-piece design with a cylindrical shell helps protect the MOVs from physical damage and environmental contaminants, while the voltage sensing element helps to detect and discharge any incoming electrical energy if it exceeds the arrester’s threshold value. The CG2800MS arrester is suitable for a wide variety of applications, ranging from electrical substations to renewable energy systems, making it a versatile choice for surge protection.
