Application Notes

After shipment or transit the valve must be pre-heated not less than 30 minutes before any anode voltage is applied so that the mercury may be distributed correctly. Temperature limits given under natural ventilation are only valid for unrestricted natural ventilation, forced air blast being required for operation up to the maximum condensed mercury temperature limit.
