ECH4
 

Variants

ECH4 with gold-colored bulb, although the ECH4 belongs to the red series.
Tungsram always was imaginative to simplify their production process. Since the ECH4 and the ECH21 have equal characteristics, the simply put the ECH21 structure into the old-style side-contact bulb to make a modernized ECH4. As the ECH21 structure already has a metal shield around, no metallized coating at the glass bulb was required any more. Jacob Roschy
ECH4 with tubular (straight) bulb
You reach this tube or valve page from a search after clicking the "tubes" tab or by clicking a tube on a radio model page. You will find thousands of tubes or valves with interesting links. You even can look up radio models with a certain tube line up. [rmxtube-en]
