Low VSWR and insertion loss Rugged and waterproof Maximum protection
in minimum space
Westford, MA, February 10, 2006 - - NexTek, Inc., a leading
designer of best-in-class lightning protection and EMC / power conditioning products
and services, announces a new family of lightning arrestors designed to operate
at frequencies of up to 12.5 GHz. The SurgeGuard™ PTC-SAx-SAF-20 is a gas discharge
tube-type lightning arrestor with SMA connectors. This PTC series is designed for
use in 0-12.5 GHz microwave applications, and provides industry-leading performance
characterized by very low VSWR and insertion loss. Compact geometries (≤36.2mm
L x 16.6mm D) assure maximum protection in the minimum space.
Able to withstand
harsh environmental conditions, the PTC-SAx-SAF-20 series is both rugged and waterproof.
Using nickel-over-brass construction, a gold center conductor and gold contacts,
the PTC-SAx-SAF-20 meets the most stringent military, commercial and environmental
standards, including IP67. Additional features include: normal and reverse polarity
SMA connectors, 10x multiple strike capability @ 5kA, 20 kA (8 x 20μs) surge
capability, bi-directional protection and an operating temperature range of -40°C
to +90°C.
The SurgeGuard™ PTC series of lightning arrestors is available
in various polarity configurations, and is value-priced in OEM quantities at $40
each. For more information or a datasheet with product specifications, visit www.nexteklightning.com.
