The 2R380TK-5 Gas Discharge Tube (GDT) from RUILON is a high-performance surge protection device designed for medium-voltage applications requiring dependable and stable overvoltage protection. Manufactured using advanced ceramic gas discharge technology, this DIP series component provides rapid response to lightning surges, switching transients, and other high-energy electrical disturbances.
With a nominal static breakdown voltage of approximately 380V, the 2R380TK-5 offers an ideal balance between protection sensitivity and operational stability. Compared to lower voltage GDTs, it significantly reduces the risk of false triggering while maintaining strong surge suppression capability. Its ultra-fast breakdown time of less than 50 ns ensures immediate activation, effectively protecting sensitive electronic circuits.
The device features stable first ignition values even after prolonged periods of inactivity and consistent following ignition characteristics during continuous operation. It supports high peak discharge current capability of up to ~500A, ensuring excellent surge handling performance. Additionally, its long electrical life and high switching durability make it suitable for repeated surge environments.
Encased in a robust DIP package, the 2R380TK-5 allows easy through-hole mounting and reliable mechanical stability. It is widely used in telecommunications, power supply systems, industrial control equipment, and surge protection modules.
