The SSP-501M is an Axial Leaded, 2.6x6.5mm Glass Discharge Tube with ROHS compliant manufacturing by SURGING. It is a high-voltage transient voltage surge suppressor designed to protect sensitive electronics from short-circuiting, grounding out, or being damaged by transient voltages caused by lightning strikes, static electricity, or other high electromagnetic interference (EMI) sources. It is suitable for applications such as charger protectors, alarm systems, and other low power protection circuits. The SSP-501M features a surge power rating of 5KA and a discharge breakdown voltage of 475VAC. It also features temperature profiles, positive temperature coefficient of resistance (PTCR), and anti surge protection that prevents over-voltages from damage and failure.
