  2. List of vacuum tubes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_vacuum_tubes

    Vacuum tubes which had special qualities of some sort, very often long-life designs, particularly for computer and telecommunications use, had the numeric part of the designation placed immediately after the first letter. They were usually special-quality versions of standard types.

  3. Materials for use in vacuum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Materials_for_use_in_vacuum

    It is easily machined and has good corrosion resistance. It is unsuitable for bakeable vacuum envelopes due to its tendency to oxidize and create scales. Copper rings are used in demountable seals. Normal copper is unsuitable for high vacuum as it is difficult to outgas completely. Copper is insensitive to hydrogen and impermeable to hydrogen ...

  4. List of Mullard–Philips vacuum tubes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Mullard–Philips...

    Most post-war European thermionic valve (vacuum tube) manufacturers have used the Mullard–Philips tube designation naming scheme. Special quality variants may have the letter "S" appended, or the device description letters may be swapped with the numerals (e.g. an E82CC is a special quality version of an ECC82)

  5. Vacuum tube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_tube

    The earliest vacuum tubes evolved from incandescent light bulbs, containing a filament sealed in an evacuated glass envelope. When hot, the filament in a vacuum tube (a cathode) releases electrons into the vacuum, a process called thermionic emission. This can produce a controllable unidirectional current though the vacuum known as the Edison ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tygon_Tubing

    This material is produced in vacuum sizes and can withstand a full vacuum at room temperature. It is a thermoplastic PVC-based material with plasticizer. [3] Tygon R-1000 Ultra-Soft Tubing is used in general laboratory applications. It is the softest of the Tygon formulations with a durometer hardness of Shore A 40 (ASTM Method D2240-02).

  8. Glass-to-metal seal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glass-to-metal_seal

    Uranium glass used as lead-in seals in a vacuum capacitor. Glass-to-metal seals are a type of mechanical seal which joins glass and metal surfaces. They are very important elements in the construction of vacuum tubes, electric discharge tubes, incandescent light bulbs, glass-encapsulated semiconductor diodes, reed switches, glass windows in metal cases, and metal or ceramic packages of ...

  9. RETMA tube designation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RETMA_tube_designation

    The Radio Electronics Television Manufacturers' Association was formed in 1953, as a result of mergers with other trade standards organisations, such as the RMA.It was principally responsible for the standardised nomenclature for American vacuum tubes - however the standard itself had already been in use for a long time before 1953; for example, the 6L6 was introduced in July 1936.
