Typical Operation

ModePlate VGm (µmhos)Rp (Ω)µPlate mA
Single Phase Full Wave (2 valves)3180 V———2500 mA
Single Phase Full Wave Bridge (4 valves)6360 V———2500 mA
Three Phase Half Wave (3 valves)4780 V———

Application Notes

The valve is directly heated; it is recommended that the output circuit be taken from the mid-point of the filament supply transformer secondary winding. Values for typical operations are based on sine wave input and the use of a suitable choke input filter.
