Power - Triode ·Triode

3BI00B

Indirectly heated power triode designed for audio-frequency output service. Its moderate amplification factor, approximately 10 W plate dissipation, and low plate-voltage rating provide loudspeaker-driving power from a heater-cathode construction rather than a directly heated filament.
