SUHNER quarter-wave
lightning protectors offer the best lightning
protection available in the market, as
they form a short for surge signals. They
have
been established as a worldwide industry
standard by HUBER+SUHNER as the original
manufacturer. The products are maintenance-free
and feature the best protection performance
with both the highest surge-current-handling
capability and the lowest residual pulse
amplitude. Also, their RF performance is
superior to other designs, including passive
intermodulation.
SUHNER lightning protectors
series 3400 offer a large variety of
products and can be adapted to any application.
Besides connectorisation and mounting
principle,
the frequency range has to be selected
properly
due to their generally limited bandwidth.
Features
• Narrowband
(typically 2 to 20% of centre frequency)
•
Available
within 60 MHz to 18 GHz max. (N, SMA)
• Best
PIM performance
• Highest current-handling
capability up to 100 kA max.
• Maintenance-free

SUHNER gas capsule
protectors make the best of the traditional
spark gap protection principle for general
applications in electronics and adapt it
perfectly to RF coaxial line applications.
At their heart are specially designed gas
capsules. The available product range of
capsules enables a selection according to
the RF transmission power with an optimum
protection performance. A very important
feature of the gas capsule protectors is
the possibility to DC/AC power outdoor equipment
via coaxial cable.
Series 3401 products can
be used broadband from DC to 1000 MHz. They
are generally designed as coaxial feedthroughs
that allow the customer to build up a protected
area according to the recommended and well-proven
protection zone principle of IEC 61312-1.
SUHNER gas capsule protectors are designed
such that the gas capsules can be easily
exchanged for new operation conditions or
replaced in the case of a necessary service.
