2R5000T-8T 5000V Gas Discharge Tube | High Surge Current GDT | 2R-8T Ceramic Package | RUILON

RUILON

The 2R5000T-8T Gas Discharge Tube (GDT) from RUILON is a high-voltage surge protection component engineered for superior performance in extreme electrical environments. Built with advanced ceramic gas discharge technology, this device provides rapid response and robust protection against lightning strikes, switching surges, and other high-energy transient events.

Featuring a DC spark-over voltage of 5000V, the 2R5000T-8T is designed for applications that require significantly higher breakdown thresholds compared to lower voltage GDT series. This elevated voltage rating minimizes false triggering while delivering exceptional surge handling capability, making it ideal for critical infrastructure and high-power systems. Its high insulation resistance ensures minimal leakage current, while low capacitance at 1 MHz preserves signal integrity in high-frequency applications.

The device offers stable glow voltage and arc voltage characteristics, ensuring efficient switching and energy dissipation during surge events. With a high impulse discharge current capability (8/20µs waveform) and excellent impulse withstanding voltage performance, it ensures long service life and reliable operation under repeated surge conditions.

Encapsulated in a rugged 2R-8T ceramic package, the 2R5000T-8T supports durable performance and easy integration into diverse circuit designs. It is widely used in telecommunications, power transmission systems, industrial electronics, and surge protection modules.
