The valve layout chart inside of the cabinet/back panel states a rectifier EZ40 or U718, whereas the chassis itself has a 9-pin rectifier valve fitted, most probably an EZ80.
An AC/DC version was made as model BC 4150, a battery version as BC 1155.
See also model BC 5151 (probably an export version) with slightly different valve complement and for 110-225 V mains.
