2R230B-8S 230V Gas Discharge Tube – 2RB-8S Package | RUILON
RUILON
The 2R230B-8S Gas Discharge Tube (GDT) from RUILON is a high-reliability ceramic surge protection device designed to protect electronic circuits from transient overvoltage events such as lightning strikes, switching surges, and electrostatic discharge (ESD). Utilizing advanced gas discharge technology, it ensures fast response and consistent performance, providing dependable protection in demanding applications.
With a DC spark-over voltage of 230V, this device is well-suited for medium-voltage applications, offering an optimal balance between sensitivity and stability. Compared to lower-voltage GDT variants, it reduces the risk of false triggering while maintaining effective surge suppression. The component supports high impulse discharge current (8/20µs) and features excellent impulse spark-over performance (1kV/µs), making it suitable for harsh electrical environments.
The device features low capacitance at 1 MHz, preserving signal integrity in high-speed communication systems, along with high insulation resistance to minimize leakage current. Stable glow voltage and arc voltage characteristics ensure long service life and reliable operation.
Encased in a compact 2RB-8S package, the 2R230B-8S enables easy integration into various PCB designs. It is widely used in telecommunications equipment, power supplies, industrial automation systems, smart meters, and consumer electronics, delivering reliable surge protection and enhanced system durability.
