TDK gas discharge tube for overvoltage protection. 720V breakover, 5kA surge rating, axial leaded. Ideal for telecom & control.
The TDK Gas Discharge Tube is a high‑performance surge arrestor designed for overvoltage protection in telecom and control systems. When the voltage exceeds the sparkover threshold, the tube rapidly short‑circuits the surge, safely diverting excess energy and protecting sensitive downstream circuitry from damage. This robust component ensures reliable operation in demanding environments, helping to extend the lifespan of your equipment and maintain system integrity.
Featuring a DC breakover voltage of 720V, this GDT delivers precise and consistent protection. With an impulse discharge current rating of 5kA and an impulse sparkover voltage of 1.3kV, it effectively handles transient surges, making it ideal for a wide range of industrial and telecommunications applications. The axial leaded case style allows for straightforward integration into existing circuit designs, whether on PCBs or through‑hole mounting.
This surge arrestor is part of the EC series from TDK, a trusted name in electronic components. Its compact form factor and lightweight design (approximately 1.5 grams) make it easy to handle and install, while the high‑quality construction ensures long‑term reliability. Whether used in telecom base stations, control panels, or security systems, this gas discharge tube provides essential protection against voltage spikes.
Key Benefits:
Protect your valuable equipment with the TDK Gas Discharge Tube – a dependable choice for overvoltage protection.
