An optional Switch-Grade Fail-Short device is available. The optional Fail-Short assembly will activate at a temperature of 215 °C – 217 °C to provide a high conductive path to ground in case of a thermal overload. GDTs equipped with the optional Fail-Short device should be soldered either manually at a temperature that is below the activation temperature of the Fail-Short mechanism, or using a selective soldering process that does not exceed 210 °C. 

## **Notes:** 

## **•  UL recognized component, UL File E153537.** 

- No model number marking on tube; date code and voltage only: month year digits, xxxV (e.g. 0209 400V). 

- The rated discharge current for Mini-TRIGARD™ Gas Discharge Tubes is the total current equally divided between each line to ground. 

- Sparkover limits after life ±25 %, IR >10[8] Ω (-25 %,+30 % for Model 2036-07, 2036-09 and 2036-60). 

- Operating characteristics per RUS PE-80 and Telcordia GR 1361 available, contact factory. 

- Line to Line voltage is approximately 1.8 to 2 times the stated Line to Ground breakdown voltage. 

- At delivery AQL 0.65 Level II, DIN ISO 2859. 

- (2) Network applied. 

- (3) DC Sparkover may exceed ±25 % after discharge, but will continue to protect without venting.
