Filament Vf 20 Volts / If 75 Ampere / Direct
Description

Pa <12kW; 21.5kW rf output at <15 MHz.
Operation up to 40MHz is peritted with a reduced anode voltage.

The filament voltage range is 18 to 20 Volt. Each tube has the correct value marked for 10A emission at 90% saturation. The clause 'g' of the CV2871 spec sheet states that the filament voltage for each tube must be measured at 1.6 A emission

The CAT6 was widely used in medium and long-wave broadcast transmitters and also for RF heating applications.
