| Description |
The 6040 is a computer rated beam power tube, intended as relay driver. The octal-based (EIA base 7AC) beam power tetrode 25L6 was mainly used for the "All American Five" type radios, in short "AA5" sets abut also in a number of early computers, like the UNIVAC I (1952) from Remington Rand (later called Sperry Rand and then Unisys). The UNIVAC I used about 5200 vacuum tubes. The tube type 6046 is the industrial type of the 25L6GT, used as a relay driver or to run selenoids in key punch machines.
