Notes: * UL recognized component, UL File E153537. * Model number marking on tube: 26-xxx V. * The rated discharge current for TRIGARD(R) Gas Discharge Tubes is the total current equally divided between each line to ground. * Sparkover limits after life 25 %, IR >108 (-25 %,+30 % for Model 2026-07, 2026-09 and 2026-60). * 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 2 3 Tube meets BT requirement Type 14 A/1 (210-310 V). Network applied. DC Sparkover may exceed 25 % after discharge, but will continue to protect without venting. *RoHS Directive 2002/95/EC Jan 27, 2003 including Annex.
