2R230TA-5 230V Gas Discharge Tube – 2RA-5 Package | RUILON
RUILON
The 2R230TA-5 Gas Discharge Tube (GDT) from RUILON is a compact and high-reliability ceramic surge protection device engineered to protect electronic circuits from transient overvoltage events such as lightning strikes, switching surges, and electrostatic discharge (ESD). Utilizing advanced gas discharge technology, it delivers fast response and stable long-term protection in demanding environments.
With a DC spark-over voltage of 230V, this component is well-suited for medium-voltage applications, offering an optimal balance between protection sensitivity and operational stability. Compared to lower-voltage GDT variants, it minimizes the risk of false triggering while maintaining effective surge suppression capability. The device supports high impulse discharge current (8/20µs) and features excellent impulse spark-over performance (1kV/µs), ensuring reliable protection in surge-prone environments.
The device features low capacitance at 1 MHz, preserving signal integrity in high-speed communication systems, while high insulation resistance reduces leakage current and enhances efficiency. Stable glow voltage and arc voltage characteristics ensure consistent operation and extended service life.
Encased in a compact 2RA-5 package, the 2R230TA-5 is ideal for space-constrained PCB designs and allows easy integration. It is widely used in telecommunications equipment, power supplies, industrial automation systems, smart meters, and consumer electronics, delivering dependable surge protection and improved system reliability.
