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 >108Ω (-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.
1 Network applied.
2 DC Sparkover may exceed ±25 % after discharge, but will continue to protect without venting.
