It is the voltage at which breakdown will occur between the electrodes when a slowly increasing voltage (dV/dt = 100 V/s) is applied to the component; it depends on the electrode spacing, the pressure, and the properties of the gas mixture and of the emissive substance. Range of DC sparkover voltages available: * minimum 75V * average 230V * high voltage 500V * very high voltage 1000 to 3000V The tolerance on the breakdown voltage is generally ± 20%. ==== 3-electrode configuration ==== Protecting a two-wire line (for example a telephone pair) with two 2- electrode gas discharge tubes (connected between the wires and ground) may cause the following problem: The line is subjected to an overvoltage in common mode; because of the dispersion of the sparkover voltages (± 20%), one of the gas discharge tubes sparks over a very short time before the other (a few microseconds); the wire that has sparked over is therefore grounded (neglecting the arc voltages), turning the common-mode overvoltage into a differential-mode overvoltage, very dangerous for the terminal equipment. This risk disappears when the second gas discharge tube arcs over (a few microseconds later). 3-electrode geometry eliminates this drawback: the sparkover of one pole causes a "general" breakdown of the device almost instantaneously (a few nanoseconds) because there is only one gasfilled enclosure. ==== End of life ==== Gas discharge tubes are designed to withstand several impulses without destruction or loss of the initial characteristics (typical impulse tests: 10 times 5kA impulses of each polarity). On the other hand, a sustained strong current (e.g. 10A rms for 15 seconds, simulating the fall of a power line onto a telecommunications line) will put the device out of service definitively. If a fail-safe end of life is desired (i.e. a short-circuit that will report the fault to the user when the line fault is detected), gas discharge tubes with the fail-safe feature (external short-circuit) should be chosen. ===== Radial - TH ===== ==== 2-PIN ==== {{:wiki:cmp:circuit_protection:surge_arresters:surge-arrester-radial-th.jpg?320}} [[https://www.tdk-electronics.tdk.com/download/531256/80440536d8bce5a6480d734d037cc4d6/pdfmounting.pdf|Mounting]] ==== 3-PIN ==== {{:wiki:cmp:circuit_protection:surge_arresters:surge-arrester-radial-th-3pin.jpg?320}} ===== SMD ===== ==== 2-PIN ==== {{:wiki:cmp:circuit_protection:surge_arresters:surge-arrester-radial-smd.jpg?320}} {{:wiki:cmp:circuit_protection:surge_arresters:surge-arrester-disk-smd.jpg?320}} {{:wiki:cmp:circuit_protection:surge_arresters:surge-arrester-brick-2pin.jpg?320}} | Bourns | 2051-09-SM-RPLF | | (4.5x3.2x2.7mm 90V +30% 2kA/2A), SMD 2.7x3.2x4.5mm 90V +30% 2kA/2A. | | Epcos | M50-C90XSMD | B88069X1640T902 | (5.4x5mm 90V +20% 10kA/5A 2-х элек.
