BOURNS 2036-07-SM-RPLF GAS DISCHARGE TUBE, 3P, 20KA, 525V (1 piece)

welcome to the borns gas discharge tube surge arrester product training module this module will provide an overview of the borns gdt product portfolio borns offers a broad and expanding gdt product portfolio borns goal is to match its gdt product line to the ever-changing application performance regulatory and cost requirements of its customers a gdt is typically placed in the circuit to either divert surge current to ground common mode or to a source differential mode during normal operation the gdt has very high impedance greater than 1 Giga ohm so it is virtually invisible to the circuit when a voltage disturbance reaches the gdt spark overvalue the gdt will switch into a virtual short circuit known as the arc mode diverting the surge current through the gdt to ground or source and protecting the equipment borns active emission coatings allow the tubes to transition into the arc mode
