Product catalog summary
Key Features of High-Power Pulsed Thyratrons:
  • Hydrogen and deuterium filled designs offering fast switching (> 100 kA/µs), rapid recovery time (< 20µs), and very low shot-to-shot jitter (< 1ns).
  • Ceramic envelope designs suitable for high average power and high peak current applications.
  • Ceramic-metal envelope designs for high mean current applications.
  • Reliability features include advanced cathode systems, high-capacity gas reservoir systems, and hollow anode structures to handle reverse voltage and current without damage.
  • High-voltage (up to 130kV) and high-current (up to 20kA) switching capabilities.
