Section ratings

2 physical sections, each with unique specifications.

Section 1

Triode

X-ray radiationInterelectrode capacitances

No fixed ratings are recorded for this section.

Cossor 220B Class B audio output triode, physical half 1 of push-pull pair. At anode 100 V and grid 0 V static anode current per half 1.25 mA. Normal anode 120 V, maximum total anode current swing 35 mA, maximum grid-to-grid signal 40 V; at 120 V average anode current 6 mA without driver, 7.5 mA with Cossor 215P driver. Plate-to-plate load 20 kΩ at 90 V, 12 kΩ at 120 V. These are circuit and combined-pair figures, NOT per-section maximum ratings. No published max plate voltage, dissipation, gm, rp or mu. Never confuse with Western Electric 220B water-cooled single transmitting triode.
