Gas Discharge Tube Arresters (GDT) are electrical devices used to prevent high voltage surges for passing through electrical systems. These devices use a Gas Discharge Tube (GDT) filled with an inert gas and an electrode to terminate short duration high voltage transients from damage to the system. The GTCA26-301M-R05 is a specific type of gas discharge tube arrester with a maximum operating voltage of 310V and 5mA current rating.

The GTCA26-301M-R05 gas discharge tube arrester is typically used to protect electric substations, power lines and communication cables. It is designed for environments with frequent high voltage transients and offers excellent suppression of fast rising transients with trip voltage and current characteristics suitable for most direct lightning applications. It is also UL recognized, with a rated impulse withstand voltage of 6kV.

The working principle of the GTCA26-301M-R05 is simple. When voltage passes beyond a certain threshold level, a spark occurs inside the gas filled tube, breaking down the insulation between the electrodes inside the tube. This arc creates an electric breakdown in the gas which redirects the surge away from the system being protected. The arc is self-sufficient and will not affect the operation of the system.

The GTCA26-301M-R05 has a low leakage current and a high limiting factor, which makes it suitable for multiple ends. Although the GTCA26-301M-R05 is designed specifically to protect against direct lightning strikes, it can also be used in an installed base of arrester for circuits which carry currents of up to 5mA. In addition, the GTCA26-301M-R05 is suitable for use in applications that require a low failure rate and excellent protection from both lightening strikes and other sources of high voltage transients.

The GTCA26-301M-R05 is UL recognized, offering excellent protection from lightning induced surges, and has a solid form factor. This makes it well suited for external installations, making it ideal for applications where space may be limited. It is also suitable for internal usage, providing reliable protection in the most demanding environments.

Overall, the GTCA26-301M-R05 gas discharge tube arrester is designed for effective protection from lightning-induced surge, making it suitable for a variety of applications. It offers excellent limiting characteristics, a high voltage rating and a wide range of rated currents making it a great choice for any application that demands reliable, quality protection from electrical surges.
