Abstract

High-power untriggered spark gaps intended for operation at a voltage of up to 150 kV and a current of 10 kA have a service life of up to 1011pulses. The spark gaps ensure switching to a load for 5–20 ns with a pulse repetition rate of up to 400 Hz. They operate under atmospheric pressure without blowing-through in an installation for decontaminating processing of products with high-voltage pulses.
