T ' INFORMATION _ RELIABLE COLD eee ean ON CATHODE GAS DIODE ‘The OAIWA is @ cold cathode, gas-filled diode of miniature construction designed for relicble service os 2 voltage ragulatr. It has on operating cusreat range of 5 to 30 milliomperas over which it maintoins @ substantially conetant operating voltage of 150 volts. Three cathode pins ote pro vided which may beused to disconnect the load when the tube is removed from the socket. This type i charactatized by long life and it is designed for service where severe conditions of high tom~ perature ond mechanicel shock or vibration are encountered.

The resistance value must be chosen 0 the maximum cucrent is not exceeded at the highest anode supply voltage and so that the Iminimum eutrent rating is always exceeded at the lowest enode supply voltage. When a shum copacitor is used its maximum velue should be limited to 01 pl. A larger value mey couse the tube to oscillate and thus give unstable performance.
