The Antenna Lightning Protection – Model 7205-00 is a gas-filled surge protection device with a changeable Gas Arrester Tube designed to protect transmitters, repeaters, and base stations from surge voltages caused by lightning or other electrical sources induced onto antenna cables. The Antenna Lightning Protection should be installed as close as possible to the transmitter or receiver.
The Antenna Lightning Protection has a threaded cap on the side that contains a recess that positions the gas arrester tube in the center of the access hole. The Antenna Lightning Protection’s gas discharge tube can be replaced in the event that a lightning strike causes a failure.
