Gas Discharge Tube (GDT) Products CG/CG2 Series CG/CG2 Series ® Description Littelfuse highly reliable CG/CG2 Series GDTs provide a high degree of surge protection in a small size ideal for board level circuit protection. GDTs function as switches which dissipate a minimum amount of energy and therefore handle currents that far surpass other types of transient voltage protection. Their gas-filled, rugged ceramic metal construction make them well suited to adverse environments. The CG/CG2 series comes in a variety of forms including surface mount, core, straight and shaped leads, to serve a variety of mounting methods. Agency Approvals AGENCY The CG Series (75-110V) is ideal for protection of test and communication equipment and other devices in which low voltage limits and extremely low arc voltages are required. AGENCY FILE NUMBER ® E128662 ® E320116 The CG2 Series (145V-1000V) is ideal for protecting equipment where higher voltage limits and holdover voltages are necessary. 2 Electrode GDT Graphical Symbol Features • Rugged Ceramic-Metal construction • Low Capacitance (<1.5pf) • Meets REA PE-80 • Available in surface mount, and a variety of lead options options Applications • Communication lines and equipment • CATV equipment • Test equipment • Data lines • Power supplies ©2009 Littelfuse, Inc.
