Ceramic-Metal
Spark Gaps are a family of versatile high
voltage switches.
They consist of three electrodes in a hermetically sealed, pressurized ceramic envelope.
Triggered Spark Gaps are generally characterized by a peak current capability of thousands to tens of thousands of amperes, delay times of tens of nanoseconds, arc resistance of tens of milliohms and inductance of 5 to 30 nanohenries.
They are suitable for capacitor switching applications such as flashlamps, electrically pumped gas lasers, medical lithotripters, and as crowbar protection devices.
