Introduction
Gas Discharge Tube Arresters (GDT) are an important element of a system intended to protect from overvoltage. A gas discharge tube arrester is a device used to limit transient overvoltages on electrical power systems. These devices are usually rated for a specific voltage, and at this voltage or higher, the electrons that carry the current through the GDT will ionize the gas, which allows current flow through the GDT to the ground. As the current passes through the gas, the voltage drops across the arrester as the current is grounded. What is GTCS35-151M-R05-2?
GTCS35-151M-R05-2 is a surface mount type of gas discharge tube arrester. It is a multi-stage, non-linear element, composed of several resistors in series with spark gaps or gas discharge tubes, designed to protect a variety of electronic and electrical equipment from the effects of transients as well as switching overvoltages. The GTCS35-151M-R05-2 has a rated discharge voltage of 1.5kV (1.25kV for 10/1000μs) and a maximum continuous operating voltage of 0.7kV.Application Field
GTCS35-151M-R05-2 gas discharge tube arresters are commonly used in telecommunications, data communications, Industrial control systems, intelligent buildings, electronic equipment, computer networks, and power systems to protect against overvoltages caused by indirect lightning strikes and other voltage transients. Typically, GDTs are installed at the transition zone between overhead and underground cables, on both transmission and distribution lines, as well as at the interface between high and low impedance points.Working Principle
The working principle behind GTCS35-151M-R05-2 gas discharge tubes arresters is that gas ionization occurs when the voltage across the tube exceeds its rated value. The ionized gas temporarily reduces the resistance of the device, allowing current to flow between the two electrodes and thus providing a path for the overvoltage to the ground. When the overvoltage subsides, the resistance of the device returns to its high state and the current flow stops. The voltage blocking capability of the device is restored and the 5uS spark gap acts as a snubber to reduce any overshoot of the voltage waveform. This process occurs within a fraction of a second and so the device provides an effective protection. Advantages
GTCS35-151M-R05-2 has a high protective capability, a low insertion loss, and is compact in size. It also offers several superior protection features such as low clamping voltage, lightning surge protection, and ESD protection. The device is capable of suppressing transient voltage spikes within a fraction of a second, thus providing cost-effective protection. Furthermore, the device helps avoid component damages, reduced system downtime, and increased system safety.Conclusion
In conclusion, GTCS35-151M-R05-2 is a gas discharge tube arrester designed to provide effective protection against transient and switching overvoltages. The device works by ionizing the gas contained in the device, allowing the current to flow through the GDT and to the ground. The device also offers several advantages such as high protective capability, low insertion loss, and reduced size. With the help of GTCS35-151M-R05-2, systems can be effectively protected against the damaging effects of over-voltage.
