What is an Electron Tube? 795 Items
An Electron Tube is an inclosure, including two or more electrodes, in which a flow of electrons may occur through a vacuum or a contained gas. The electronic conduction takes place either by means of electrons emitted from a cathode or by ionization of the contained gas. Includes phototubes (photoemissive type only), Geiger-Mueller tubes, traveling wave tubes, cathode ray tubes and microwave tubes (Klystron, magnetron, or the like). Excludes items whose primary purpose is to produce light energy. Also excludes PHOTOELECTRIC CELL; and SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE (as modified).
What is an Electron Tube Shield? 34 Items
An Electron Tube Shield (SHIELD,ELECTRON TUBE) is an item specifically designed to be placed partially or completely around an electron tube for the purpose of shielding against electrical or mechanical interference or physical damage. May include mounting facilities. See also COVER (as modified); HOUSING (as modified) and VISOR (as modified).
What is an Electron Tube Retainer? 31 Items
An Electron Tube Retainer (RETAINER,ELECTRON TUBE) is an item specifically designed to restrain the movement of an electron tube when the latter is mounted in another item, normally a tube socket. Includes clamps, clips, and similar restraining devices specifically designed for this function.
