Typical Operation
| Mode | Plate V | Gm (µmhos) | Rp (Ω) | µ | Plate 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.
