The 3R150B-5S is a high-reliability Gas Discharge Tube (GDT) designed for effective surge protection in modern electronic, telecom, and industrial systems. Built in a compact 3RB-5S ceramic SMD package, this device provides robust over-voltage protection by safely diverting high-energy transient surges away from sensitive circuit components. Manufactured by RUILON, it ensures stable performance, long service life, and strong surge endurance under repeated electrical stress conditions.
This GDT features a 150V DC spark-over voltage (measured at 100V/µs), making it suitable for protecting low to medium voltage signal lines, communication interfaces, and electronic circuits. It also supports impulse spark-over capability at 1kV/µs, ensuring fast response against lightning surges, switching transients, and electrostatic discharge events. With ultra-low capacitance at 1 MHz, it is ideal for high-speed data transmission systems and signal integrity-sensitive applications.
The 3R150B-5S offers high insulation resistance and optimized discharge characteristics, including stable glow voltage at 10mA and controlled arc voltage at 1A, ensuring efficient energy dissipation during surge events. Its high impulse discharge current capability (8/20µs waveform) enhances durability under repetitive surge exposure, while its impulse withstand voltage rating ensures long-term operational reliability in harsh environments.
