Specialized - Thyratron ·Thyratron
Hydrogen thyratron interchangeable with 4C35, using a self-contained hydrogen source for stable long-life pulse switching.
Hydrogen thyratron interchangeable with 4C35 except for its self-contained hydrogen source, giving a minimum 1000-hour life expectancy.
General specifications
Properties common to every published source and operating point.
Electrical assignments shared by every tube using this base designation.
No verified pinout is recorded for this base designation.
1 physical section, each with unique specifications.
Section 1
Hydrogen-filled thyratron; maximum peak cathode current is 80 A and average cathode current is 0.1 A. Pulse/trigger limits preserved as parameters.
Source-dependent data
Each block preserves the test conditions and published values from one reference. Values from different sources are intentionally kept separate.
