The Micro-Arc spark gap series are designed for electrical transient protection and energy release in applications where miniaturized packaging is necessary and small transient currents are anticipated. They may also be used where a large one time energy release is required, for example, in the initiation of explosive detonations. They offer a high insulation resistance of greater than 1 x 10E9 ohms and capacitance of less than 1pF. Surge capability is 1000 amperes (8 x 20 usec waveshape).
