The 3R470SD-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 470V DC spark-over voltage, this component is optimized for medium- to high-voltage applications requiring stable and efficient surge suppression performance.
Built with advanced gas discharge technology, the 3R470SD-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 470V model provides improved resistance to false triggering in higher operating voltage environments while maintaining reliable protection performance. 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.
