The 3R470B-5S Gas Discharge Tube (GDT) from RUILON is a high-reliability ceramic surge protection device designed to protect electronic systems from transient overvoltage events such as lightning strikes and switching surges. Featuring a 470V DC spark-over voltage, this component is ideal for medium- to high-voltage applications requiring stable and efficient surge suppression.
Built with advanced gas discharge technology, the 3R470B-5S ensures stable impulse spark-over voltage at 1KV/µs, along with high insulation resistance and low capacitance at 1 MHz, minimizing 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 operational life.
Compared to lower voltage GDT variants, the 470V model provides improved resistance to false triggering in higher operating voltage environments while maintaining reliable protection performance. The compact 3RB-5S package supports efficient PCB design and consistent 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 dependable and long-lasting circuit protection.
