High Energy Devices’ products are used to protect electrical equipment from destructive voltage transients or for transferring stored electrical energy, usually from a storage capacitor, to a load circuit. Our gaps are made from the highest quality materials to handle high operating voltage and current applications. These products are used extensively in some of the most demanding military environments and are typically used for protecting thyratron or hard tube modulator components, high-wattage power supply components, high voltage medical equipment, and video display tubes. These devices are also used as active switches for high voltage energy transfer or triggering applications such as flashlamps, exploding bridgewire systems (EBW), and capacitor bank discharging.
