The 3R230SB-8S Gas Discharge Tube (GDT) from RUILON is a high-reliability ceramic surge protection device designed to protect electronic circuits from transient overvoltage events such as lightning strikes and switching surges. Featuring a 230V DC spark-over voltage, this component provides a balanced solution for medium-voltage applications requiring stable and efficient surge suppression.
Built with advanced gas discharge technology, the 3R230SB-8S delivers stable impulse spark-over voltage at 1KV/µs, along with high insulation resistance and low capacitance at 1 MHz, ensuring minimal signal distortion in communication and control circuits. Its strong capability to withstand high impulse discharge current (8/20µs waveform) ensures effective surge absorption and long service life.
Compared to lower voltage GDT variants, the 230V model reduces nuisance triggering while maintaining fast and reliable protection performance, making it suitable for a wide range of electronic and industrial applications. The compact 3RB-8S package supports efficient PCB layout and dependable operation in space-constrained environments.
This GDT is widely used in telecommunications equipment, power supplies, industrial automation systems, signal line protection, and surge protection devices (SPD), delivering consistent and long-lasting circuit protection.
