GTCA28-900M-R20

Gas Discharge Tube Arresters (GDTs) are protective devices which are used in power systems to prevent damage caused by lightning, line switching and other high-voltage-related disturbances. GDTs work by diverting destructive surge currents away from sensitive equipment and returning them to the ground where they can be safely dissipated. The GTCA28-900M-R20 is a Compact Gas Discharge Tube Arrester (GDT) designed for industrial applications that require flexibility, which includes providing surge protection at both Poles and Neutral.

The GTCA28-900M-R20 is made up of two parts: a Gas Discharge Tube (GDT) and a Surge Protective Device (SPD). The SPD is a miniature spark gap connected in series with the GDT. The GDT is a metalized ceramic tube filled with an inert gas. Inside the GDT, electrons move towards an electron collection plate and the spark gaps form an electric arc. This process creates an electric field, which directs the destructive surge current away from the protected component and safely dissipates it to ground.

The GTCA28-900M-R20 has an operating voltage of 14 volts and an operating current of 28 amps, making it suitable for use in a range of industrial applications, such as LED lighting, industrial automation, and renewable energy systems. The device is designed to provide high-speed, overvoltage- and overcurrent-protection in these applications. It is also designed to comply with various international standards, such as IEC 61643, EN60898, and UL497B.

The GTCA28-900M-R20 is designed to provide secure, reliable, and versatile surge protection. Its features include arc extinguishing, a superior surge rating, and an extended temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. Additionally, it has a low insertion loss and minimal thermal runaway. This makes it ideal for industrial-grade applications that require protection from high-voltage surges.

The GTCA28-900M-R20 is designed to provide a cost-effective surge protection for commercial and industrial applications. Its compact design and simple installation make it an ideal choice for industrial applications where reliability and surge protection are of paramount importance. It is also a highly reliable, cost-effective surge protection solution for industrial and commercial sector applications.
