Item

Test Condition/ Description

Requirement

DC Spark-over Voltage

The voltage is measured witha slowly rate of rise dv/ dt=100V/s

To meet

the specified

value

Impulse Spark-over Voltage

The maximum impulse spark-over voltage is measured witha rise time of

dv/ dt=100V//

μs or 1KV/μs

Insulation Resistance

The resistance of gas tube shall be measured each terminal each other

terminal,

please see above spec.

Capacitance

The capacitance of gas tube shall be measured each terminal to each other

terminal.

Test frequency :1MHz

Nominal Impulse Discharge

Current

The maximum current applying a waveform of 8/20

μs that can be applied

across the terminals of the gas tube. One hour after the test is completed,

re-testing of the DC spark-over voltage does not exceed

±30% of the nominal

DC spark-over voltage. Dwell time between pulses is3 minutes.

Solder Iron Temperature: 350

°C +/-5°C

Heating Time:

5 seconds max.
