DESCRIPTION
CP Clare’s Triggergaps are high-energy spark gaps that are capable of switching stored energy in a fraction of a microsecond. Triggergaps use no standby power, are extremely rugged and require only a low energy high voltage triggering pulse. FEATURES
n Rugged ceramic-metal construction n -55°C to +125°C operating temperature n Short delay time n Compact size n High reliability n Vibration tested to MIL-STD-202D method 204, test conditions A n Thermal shock tested per MIL-STD-202D method 107, test condition B n Mechanical shock tested per MIL-STD202D method 204, test condition A n Capable of >2500 discharges APPLICATIONS
