Popis: The design and principle of operation of a high-voltage high-speed switch consisting of two opposite-parallel connected RVU-61 triggered vacuum gaps are described and the results of testing it are provided. The switch is designed to switch capacitor banks with a charging voltage of 0.1–50 kV that operate in the mode of an oscillatory circuit. One specific feature of the switch is the possibility of controlling the duration of the switched pulse, which enables saving energy in the subsequent bank charging.
