This document introduces EPCOS's surge arresters, including product features, characteristics, applications, etc.
This EPCOS product leaflet describes gas‑filled surge arresters and switching spark gaps used for protecting telecommunications equipment and other electronic systems from over‑voltage and over‑current events. It outlines typical applications, construction details, functional principles and environmental and safety information.
The document also provides a concise specification table for the spark‑gap devices, covering switching time, peak current, energy per discharge, service life and arc voltage, as well as guidance on mounting, packaging and product identification. This manual is written in German.
