Application Notes
The tube should be mounted in a vertical position with the anode end down. Distilled water is recommended for cooling to prevent scale formation. Water flow rate should be not less than 3 gallons per minute and outlet temperature should not exceed 75° C. Provision should be made to limit initial filament current when cold.
