3R250SD-8S 250V Gas Discharge Tube (GDT) Surge Protector – 3RD-8S Package | RUILON

RUILON

The 3R250SD-8S Gas Discharge Tube (GDT) from RUILON is a high-reliability ceramic surge protection device designed to safeguard electronic circuits from transient overvoltage events such as lightning strikes and switching surges. Featuring a 250V DC spark-over voltage, this component provides a balanced protection level for medium-voltage applications requiring stable and efficient surge suppression performance.

Built with advanced gas discharge technology, the 3R250SD-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 energy absorption and long operational life.

Compared to lower voltage variants, the 250V model reduces nuisance triggering while maintaining fast and reliable protection performance, making it suitable for a wide range of electronic systems. The compact 3RD-8S package supports efficient PCB layout and dependable operation in space-constrained applications.

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.
