The 2R230LB-8TH Gas Discharge Tube (GDT) from RUILON is a high-performance ceramic surge protection device designed to safeguard electronic systems from transient overvoltage events such as lightning strikes and switching surges. Featuring a 230V DC spark-over voltage, this component provides an ideal balance between protection sensitivity and operational stability for medium-voltage applications.
Engineered with advanced gas discharge technology, the 2R230LB-8TH delivers stable impulse spark-over voltage at 1KV/µs, along with high insulation resistance and low capacitance at 1 MHz, ensuring minimal signal distortion in communication and control circuits. Its capability to withstand high impulse discharge current (8/20µs waveform) ensures excellent surge absorption and long service life.
Compared to lower voltage GDT variants, the 230V model reduces the risk of false triggering while maintaining effective surge protection, making it suitable for a wide range of electronic applications. The 2RL-8TH through-hole package provides strong mechanical durability and reliable performance in demanding environments.
This GDT is widely used in telecommunications equipment, power supplies, industrial automation systems, signal line protection, and surge protection devices (SPD), delivering consistent and dependable circuit protection.
