A specialized type of gas-filled tube includes the thyratron, krytron, and ignitron tubes called gas discharge tubes (GDT). A gas discharge tube is an electronic component in which the electrodes are organized inside a tube-like an arrangement, and are enclosed by gas within an insulating temperature-resistant cover.
Gas discharge tubes operates ionization of gas by the application of appropriate amount of voltage which causes electrical conduction. Gas discharge tubes are used for protect several energy-sensitive equipment, devices and persons from electric surges.
Gas discharge tubes extensively used for the protection of telecommunications plant and equipment against overvoltage caused by lightning, power switching, and fault conditions. Gas discharge tubes also used in industrial and consumer electronics for power supplies, fire alarm systems, surge protectors, and irrigation systems.
The increasing hazardous accidents due to the flow of high voltage in an electronic device is prominent factors affecting the global gas discharge tubes market positively over the forecast period. Gas discharge tubes are normally used for protect sensitive telecom parameters such as power lines, data transmission lines, and signal lines from damage affected by transient surge voltages that typically result from equipment switching operations and lightning strikes.
Gas discharge tubes also helps to provide overvoltage fault protection against damage caused by high energy surges. Rising urbanization and increase in disposable income has increased the standard of living in developing countries, owing to which there is an increase in spending on electronic devices. Thus, the market is expected to exhibit a high growth rate in the gas discharge tubes market.
The increasing adoption of filter technology which is used for replacement for gas discharge tube. Filter technology is one of the significant factor which is hindering the growth of the gas discharge tubes market.
Some of the prominent players manufacturing gas discharge tubes are Bourns, Inc., Littelfuse, Inc., NIC Components Corp, Heilind Electronics, Phoenix Contact, HuaXinAn, TDK Electronics AG, Mitsubishi Materials Corporation.
There is a predominance of the electronic industry in the Asia Pacific region especially in countries such as China, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, etc. Also, the consumption of electronic devices is rising at a considerable rate due to the rise in urbanization.
The Asia Pacific region is proposed to hold a considerable market share due to the significant presence of key players in the gas discharge tube market and the fast technological advancements in this region. In regions such as North America there is high presence of the electronics and electrical industry, and the demand for consumer electronics is expected to follow an upward trend over the years.
There is a dominant presence of the electronic industry in the European region as well. The electronic industry is expected to grow quickly and the demand for electronics is expected to increase over the years, due to which Europe can be considered as a prospective market for gas discharge tubes.
