Max plate voltage
14000 V

14KP4A CRT: maximum anode2 HV 14000 V; anode1 focusing electrode 200–410 V (not a screen-grid rating). Grid minimum -1 V; grid voltage at visual cutoff conditional -0.24×anode1 voltage. Peak heater-negative-to-cathode maximum 150 V. Typical anode2 12000 V, anode1 250 V, grid drive for peak brightness 30 V, peak cathode current 195 µA. Grid resistor max 1 MΩ. White phosphor gray-face (~66% transmission), magnetic focus/deflection 70° diagonal, ion trap. Capacitances grid-to-all 6.5 pF, cathode-to-all 5.5 pF, anode2-to-coating 1200 pF. Heater switching surge <=8.5 V.

Source-dependent data

Operating conditions by source

Each block preserves the test conditions and published values from one reference. Values from different sources are intentionally kept separate.

No source-specific operating conditions are recorded.
