Typical Operation

ModePlate VGm (µmhos)Rp (Ω)µPlate mA
Single-phase Half-Wave (Capacitor Input Filter)8800 V—1200—40 mA
Single-phase Bridge (Choke Input Filter)17600 V—1200—100 mA
Unidirectional Conductor (DC Circuit)——1200—

Application Notes

Intended for use in rectifier units, voltage multipliers, or special applications where gas-filled tubes are unsuitable due to temperature or frequency. Plate dissipation usually limits d-c current capability. Filament reaches operating temperature in a fraction of a second.
