The Bourns 2026 series is a family of 3-pole gas discharge tubes (GDTs) offering robust surge protection for sensitive electronic circuits. These GDTs are ideal for applications in telecommunications, industrial, commercial, and consumer electronics, as well as aircraft and military electronics. The 2026-15-C2LF model boasts a balanced TRIGARD design for consistent performance, a high surge current rating, and stable breakdown characteristics throughout its lifespan. It is RoHS compliant and available with an optional fail-short device for enhanced safety and reliability. The fail-short device activates at 215°C – 217°C, providing a high conductive path to ground in case of thermal overload.
