描述 Description

The AL-D4-05W is a high performance 3-stage weatherproof protector that provides superior protection of

differential or balanced digital or analog lines from transients and surges. This unit will protect up to four pairs of

lines or eight single ended data, analog or control lines.

The first stage is comprised of a differential gas discharge tube. Stage two is a pair of current limiting series

resistors and the final stage is a low capacitance diode array. The use of three terminal differential gas discharge

tubes provides superior common and differential mode protection against conducted transients versus the use of

lower cost two terminal tubes. The second stage series resistance limits the power dissipation of the fast diode

clamp array in the third stage. This allows time for the slower but higher power gas tubes to flash over. The diode

array clamps the leading edge of fast transients to safe levels until the high power gas tubes turn on. This

eliminates the damaging leading edge spike that single stage gas tube

protectors let leak through. The diode array’s low capacitance assures that the

suppressor will not degrade the high-speed signals. The 3-stage design can

handle higher-level transients than a protector that uses only diodes.

Failsafe Feature

The AL-D4-05W series is designed to convert into a failsafe mode in the rare

case of a catastrophic surge or lightning event. For this mode, the resistors in

the second stage will fuse and portions of the diode array will short. This

effectively disconnects the line from sensitive equipment thus limiting damage.

The units are factory repairable.
