The 2026-30-C is a balanced 3-pole gas discharge tube that provides robust overvoltage protection. It features a nominal DC sparkover voltage of 300 V and an impulse sparkover voltage of 500 V at a ramp of 100 V/μs. This component is characterized by its high surge current rating, low capacitance of less than 2 pF, and high insulation resistance exceeding 10^10 Ω. The stable breakdown characteristics throughout its life make it ideal for demanding applications such as telecommunications, industrial electronics, and consumer electronics.
