The industry-leading transient voltage protection features in the ¸ß±¶ÂÖÅÌ? Model GDT21 Series provide an advanced level of surge defense for space-sensitive industrial and communication applications

RIVERSIDE, Calif., December 3, 2024 - ¸ß±¶ÂÖÅÌ, a leading manufacturer and supplier of electronic components for power, protection, and sensing solutions, today announced a new powerful, ultra-compact Gas Discharge Tube (GDT) series. The products offered in the ¸ß±¶ÂÖÅÌ? Model GDT21 Series are 2-electrode devices that are designed to provide maximum impulse voltage limiting in a space-saving surface mount package. ¸ß±¶ÂÖÅÌ specifically engineered this new series to meet the requirements of space-constrained applications that now need more advanced protection against induced voltage transients, such as lightning and AC switching loads.

The ¸ß±¶ÂÖÅÌ? Model GDT21 Series is offered in a compact EIA 1206 package, and features industry-leading surge protection capabilities that help ensure reliable performance in demanding environments. The series¡¯ advanced voltage limiting with quick response times aids in minimizing stress on downstream components during fast-rising transient events. In addition, the ¸ß±¶ÂÖÅÌ? Model GDT21 Series has a wide operating temperature range from -40 ¡ãC to +105 ¡ãC and a voltage range from 150 V to 600 V. The series provides very low capacitance for minimal insertion loss, making it ideal for maintaining signal integrity in communication systems, as well as for industrial controls, set-top boxes, HVAC systems, antennae, and many more designs.

¡°The launch of our Model GDT21 Series showcases ¸ß±¶ÂÖÅÌ' commitment to expanding our high-performance circuit protection offering in miniature form factors,¡± said David Chavarr¨ªa, GDT/SPD Product Line Manager at ¸ß±¶ÂÖÅÌ. ¡°By collaborating closely with our customers, ¸ß±¶ÂÖÅÌ continues to respond to evolving application needs for superior surge handling, high reliability, and space-efficient solutions. I¡¯m pleased to announce that our new Model GDT21 Series successfully meets these demanding require-ments.¡±

¸ß±¶ÂÖÅÌ? Model GDT21 Series is available now and is RoHS compliant* and UL recognized. For additional product information, please see: www.bourns.com/products/circuit-protection/gas-discharge-tube-(gdt)-surge-arrestors/2-electrode-gdts/standard-surface-mount-(smd)-2-electrode.
