BBS-230 Two Electrode Gas Discharge Tube

BBS-230 is a two-electrode gas discharge tube with lead termination for printed circuit mounting. Its ceramic gas-filled construction is designed to conduct during an overvoltage event and return to an insulating state after the event clears. The device suits circuit protection designs that call for a discrete gas discharge element with axial leads. It can be placed across protected lines or other nodes when the circuit specifies this type of surge component. The leaded format supports straightforward through-hole installation in new assemblies and compatible repair work. Its two-terminal form keeps board connection straightforward in circuits designed around this leaded format. Use it where the circuit requires the same gas discharge tube form and electrical function. Request a quote for BBS-230.
