Power - Triode ·Triode-Triode

7802WA

High-power triode designed for pulse-modulator service, with manufacturer ratings centered on short-duration high-voltage, high-current pulses rather than continuous RF or audio operation. Its intended role is switching or modulating pulsed power in professional equipment.
