The Bourns 2026 series gas discharge tubes are designed for transient voltage suppression in a variety of applications, including telecommunications, industrial, commercial, consumer, aircraft, and military electronics. These GDTs offer a balanced TRIGARD design, ensuring stable breakdown throughout their lifespan. They are characterized by their compact size (approximately 8mm diameter, 11mm long), high surge current rating, and RoHS compliance. An optional Switch-Grade Fail-Short device is available to provide a high conductive path to ground in case of thermal overload, ensuring continued circuit protection.
