Gas Discharge Tube Arresters (GDT)

A Gas Discharge Tube Arresters (GDT) is an electrical component designed to protect critical electronics from damaging voltage surges caused by lightning, static electricity, and other power problems. GDTs provide a low-impedance path to safely discharge high-energy spikes and protect associated equipment from damage. GDTs are typically mounted directly on the equipment to be protected.

As an example, the GTCS36-351M-R10-2 is a unique arrester manufactured by TDK. It is a single-stage arrester with a 10mOhm impedance rating and 10KV voltage rating (IEC: 61243-3). It is designed for industrial applications, and can be used for residential, commercial, or medical applications. The GTCS36-351M-R10-2 is designed to protect a range of sensitive electronic components, including microcontrollers, storage devices, power supplies, and power switches.

The working principle of the GTCS36-351M-R10-2 is based on the principle of gas discharge. The arrester contains a filled gas capsule which, when subjected to excessive voltage, breaks down and discharges. This process removes excess electrical energy and redirects it to the ground, safely discharging the energy and protecting the equipment. As the gas discharge occurs, the remaining voltage is much lower and can no longer cause damage to the protected equipment.

The GTCS36-351M-R10-2 is particularly useful for industrial applications where hazardous voltage levels are more likely to occur. The arrester can provide a reliable and effective solution to protect electronic components from voltage surges, and is much less expensive than alternative solutions such as uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) or ferroresonant type surge protectors. Furthermore, the arrester is also suitable for use in electronic components requiring high surge capabilities.

In comparison to other types of surge protectors, the GTCS36-351M-R10-2 has several advantages. The arrester is designed for use in more severe environments and is capable of absorbing a larger amount of energy. Furthermore, the arrester has a high short-circuit current capacity and can withstand temperatures ranging from -40˚C to +80˚C. Finally, the arrester has an IP67-rated enclosure for outstanding protection against dust, water, and other contaminants.

In conclusion, the GTCS36-351M-R10-2 arrester is a reliable and cost-effective solution for protecting electronic components from voltage surges. With its high short-circuit current capacity, IP67-rated enclosure, and wide temperature range, the arrester is ideal for industrial applications where hazardous voltage levels are more likely to occur. In addition, the device is easy to mount directly onto the equipment to be protected, making installation and maintenance straightforward.
