Gas Discharge Tube Arrester (GDT) is a type of device that protects electronic equipment from lightning strike and other forms of electrical overload. GDTs are commonly used in a variety of applications such as telecommunications, power, medical and industrial. The GDTs are available in a wide variety of sizes and configurations to meet various application requirements. One such GDT is the GTCA38-471M-R10.

GTCA38-471M-R10 is a dual anode/cathode glass tube arrester. It is able to withstand up to 18000A lightning surge current withstanding per industry standards. The device is capable of carrying up to 4 amps of continuous current and up to 15 amps of maximum DC current. The arrester exhibits a high level of safety with respect to electrical shock, due to its ultra-low resistance. The GTCA38-471M-R10 has an operating voltage of 600V.It is typically used in telecom applications, particularly in wireless base stations, to protect against any damage from lightning surges.

The working principle of GTCA38-471M-R10 is based on the concept of gas filling. When the voltage reaches the specified level, the electric field due to the current flow increases the electric field in the gas. This in turn creates an electric spark, which effectively breaks the circuit and provides protection against electric surges. The spark generated by the device is very small and not hazardous to the safety of personnel or equipment.

GTCA38-471M-R10 is also designed to limit the current through the arrester and help protect against catastrophic failures. The device features a built-in Resistor-Capacitor (RC) Network which helps to limit the energy and current to a safe level. This ensures that contingent upon successful operation of the specified voltage, no permanent damage will occur to the arrester or equipment connected to it.

The GTCA38-471M-R10 is designed to provide reliable and efficient protection from lightning surges and other forms of electric overload. It is ideal for use in a wide range of applications, including telecom, power, medical, and industrial. With its high level of safety, low resistance and powerful surge protection capability, GTCA38-471M-R10 is one of the most reliable surge protection solutions available in the market.
