Typical Operation
| Mode | Plate V | Gm (µmhos) | Rp (Ω) | µ | Plate mA |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Typical (300V) | 300 V | 2250 | 2300 | 5.08 | 19 mA |
| Typical (400V) | 400 V | 3100 | 1650 | 5.12 | 44 mA |
| Typical (450V) | 450 V | 3450 | 1500 | 5.14 | 60 mA |
Application Notes
When alternating current is used for heating the filament, the grid and plate returns should be connected to a center tap on the secondary of the filament transformer. For horizontal mounting, the plane of the filament should be vertical.
