EMP-Protectors CSP Series

The CSP-series consists of a number of surge protection devices for the protection of coaxial RF-cables.

CSP-series protection devices can be installed as feed-through components directly into a bulkhead such as the wall of a shielded room. This diverts surge currents on the outer conductor to the grounded shield. Overvoltage surges on the inner conductor are limited with respect to the outer conductor.

Depending on the application different protection technologies with varying protection levels are used. The transient residual let-through energy strongly depends on the protection technology and the temporal behaviour of the overvoltage surge. Therefore standardized pulse shapes and a load impedance matched to line impedance are used for specification.

GDT-technology (Gas Discharge Tube) has the advantage of broadband and extremely low insertion loss protection from DC (e.g. for remote powering of an external antenna)  up to several GHz. The protection levels are limited due to the large bandwidth and are mostly determined by the behaviour of the gas discharge tube.

Stubline technology, also called lambda/quater or quater wave technology, works like a bandpass  filter for a certain passband. Advantages are low attenuation in the passband and high surge current capability.

Highpass filter technology blocks low frequencies while having low insertion loss in the passband. This permits relatively low transient residual energies. Special versions additionally permit DC-feed-through for remote powering over the coaxial cable.
