Montena GT50K generator has been designed as a trigger source for Marx generators and for trigatrons (triggerable spark gap switches). It can replace the obsolete PT55 pulser/trigger generator from Pacific-Atlantic Electronics, as mechanical dimensions and attachment points are the same.
The advantages of the GT50K trigger generator are:
- Solid-state switch
- Long lifetime
- No need of external high voltage power source
- Can be triggered by a 5 V digital signal or by fibre optic control
- Compact design
