The 2R230TK-5 Gas Discharge Tube (GDT) from RUILON is a high-performance DIP surge protection device designed for reliable overvoltage protection in AC and signal line applications. Built using advanced ceramic gas discharge technology, this component ensures rapid response to transient events such as lightning surges, switching spikes, and electrical disturbances.
With a nominal static breakdown voltage around 230V, the 2R230TK-5 provides precise and stable protection, making it ideal for circuits operating in low to medium voltage ranges. The device features extremely fast breakdown time (<50 ns), enabling quick activation during surge events to protect sensitive components effectively. Its consistent ignition characteristics, both after extended inactivity and during continuous operation, ensure dependable performance over time.
Engineered for durability, the GDT supports high discharge peak current capability (~300A) and maintains stable electrical life performance across repeated switching operations. Compared to higher voltage GDT series, this model offers lower breakdown thresholds, making it suitable for applications requiring earlier surge intervention.
The DIP package design allows easy through-hole mounting and strong mechanical stability, making it ideal for industrial and power applications. The 2R230TK-5 is widely used in power supplies, telecom systems, consumer electronics, and surge protection circuits.
