Sinusoidal Input17000 V—100000—0.5 mA
Pulse Input17000 V—100000—0.1 mA

Application Notes

Designed for use in the E.H.T. supply of television receivers. Low heater consumption permits operation from line fly-back pulses whilst the absence of base enables the valve to be wired in close proximity to the line output transformer.
