Description

22WP22 is a color picture tube using electrostatic focusing and magnetic deflection. The source specifies a P22 screen and publishes CRT accelerating/anode ratings, control and focusing-electrode limits, heater-cathode limits, capacitances, and operating or deflection characteristics. The datasheet explicitly directs use of 22UP22 electrical data except for the stated screen, optical, or mechanical differences.
