SEMPER™ by HUBER+SUHNER

SEMPER in series 3401/3402/3408/3409/3410

The world’s first self-extinguishing gas discharge tube protector

Enhanced safety and reliability

The SEMPER^TM-concept enhances the safety and reliability of the well known and proven gas discharge tube protector principle impressively. It eliminates the risk of capsule “hold on” due to DC line powering of high powered RF signals, which will render the system inoperable and can destroy the protective capsule.

Features and benefits

• self-extinguishing gas discharge tube with automatic recovery
• extinguishes under any coaxial line condition including:
  - malfunction of electronic fused DC supplies
  - malfunction of RF line monitoring
  - absence of any such mechanism
• can be employed for any HUBER+SUHNER gas discharge tube protectors with exchangeable GDT
• field replacement allows cost-effective system upgrades
• product options ensure availability for any application
• higher safety
• negligible system downtime

By offering both, complete SEMPER^TM protector and replaceable SEMPER^TM capsule unit options, HUBER+SUHNER are able to provide lightning protection solutions to a wide range of both civil and military applications and system upgrades.
