Bourns is pleased to announce the addition of a new 3-electrode Gas Discharge Tube (GDT) series to its successful and innovative next-generation GDT voltage transient protection offering.
The Model GDT35 Series expands Bourns’ tradition of quality, innovation and design in GDT overvoltage surge arrestors and sets a new standard in
speed and robustness.
Similar to the previously released 2-electrode Model GDT25 Series, this new series provides significant improvements in protection from voltage transients caused by lightning or accidental contact with AC power lines.
With improvements driven by computer modeling simulations, the Model GDT35 Next-Generation Series provides an enhanced level of voltage limiting during fast rising events to reduce stress on downstream components. For this 3-electrode version, Bourns’ unique coplanarity fit allows the component to toggle in either direction until a three-point contact is established. The low capacitance and low insertion loss make this new series an ideal solution for the protection of industrial communications, and high speed information and communication technology (ICT) equipment.
