Gas Discharge Tube Arresters (GDT): GTCS28-351M-R10-2 Application Field and Working Principle

Gas Discharge Tube Arresters (GDT) are electrical components used to protect electrical equipment and circuits against overvoltage transients. They are commonly used for lightning and power transient protection in all kinds of transmission and distribution systems and in the telecommunications field. Examples of these systems include telephone lines, CATV and broadcasting systems, power networks, and transmission and distribution systems.

The GTCS28-351M-R10-2 is a gas discharge tube (GDT) arrester designed to provide excellent transient protection from lightning and power transient surge events. This GDT model is characterized by its high surge energy handling capability of up to 28 kV. It is designed to provide superior surge performance over voltage ranges from 28 kV to 351 MV in both normally-on and normally-off configurations. The GTCS28-351M-R10-2 can be deployed in both open and enclosed electrical installations, allowing it to be installed in a variety of locations without additional protection measures.

Application Field

The GTCS28-351M-R10-2 is ideal for protecting high-voltage systems, communication systems, circuit boards, and other electrical distribution systems from overvoltage transients. Furthermore, due to its low insertion loss, the GTCS28-351M-R10-2 allows for the continuous connection of wiring while maintaining high surge withstand performance. This makes it ideal for applications in which maintenance or repair needs to occur without disconnecting the line. The GTCS28-351M-R10-2 can be installed in a variety of locations, including households, commercial buildings, financial establishments, and industrial control systems. Furthermore, it is suitable for use in highly corrosive environments, such as those exposed to salt spray, dust, and other harsh weather conditions.

Working Principle

GTCS28-351M-R10-2’s working principle is based on the theory of electrical discharges through gas-filled tubes. When an overvoltage occurs, such as a lightning strike, power surge, or other transient event, the electrical current flow through the tube of the GTCS28-351M-R10-2 is increased. This causes the gas inside the tube to become ionized, and the discharge of electricity to be transferred to the metal parts of the device. This, in turn, causes the voltage of the device to be reduced to the same lower level as the voltage of the device. In doing so, the device is able to effectively limit and control the amount of electricity being transferred from the overvoltage source. The GTCS28-351M-R10-2 features an overvoltage cycle of between 28 to 351 MV, which allows it to handle overvoltage events of up to this level while providing reliable protection for the device. Additionally, the device is equipped with an overpressure protection mechanism, which helps to reduce the amount of damage caused to the device in the event of overvoltage events. This helps to prolong the life of the device and ensures that it is able to offer reliable protection.

Conclusion

GTCS28-351M-R10-2 is a gas-filled device designed for high-voltage applications. It is characterized by high surge energy handling capability and low insertion loss. It is suitable for a variety of applications and locations, and is equipped with an overpressure protection mechanism for enhanced protection against transient events. By utilizing its working principle of electrical discharge through gas-filled tubes, the GTCS28-351M-R10-2 is able to effectively limit and control the amount of electricity being transferred from the source of the overvoltage, ensuring reliable protection of electrical devices.
