The 2R380TK-8 Gas Discharge Tube (GDT) from RUILON is a high-performance surge protection device engineered for medium-voltage applications requiring stable and efficient overvoltage protection. Built with advanced ceramic gas discharge technology, this DIP series component ensures rapid response to lightning surges, switching transients, and other high-energy disturbances.
With a nominal static breakdown voltage of approximately 380V, the 2R380TK-8 provides an optimized protection threshold, offering enhanced stability compared to lower voltage GDTs while maintaining strong surge suppression capability. Its ultra-fast breakdown time of less than 50 ns ensures immediate activation, effectively protecting sensitive electronic circuits from transient damage.
The device features consistent ignition characteristics, including reliable first ignition values after extended inactivity and stable following ignition behavior during continuous operation. It supports high switching durability of up to 2×10⁵ operations at +25°C and operates efficiently at switching frequencies up to 200 Hz, ensuring dependable performance in repetitive surge environments.
Encased in a durable DIP package, the 2R380TK-8 allows easy through-hole mounting and secure integration into various circuit designs. It is widely used in telecommunications, power supply systems, industrial automation, and surge protection modules.
