8503C HYDROGEN THYRATRON

The 8503C is a hydrogen-filled triode thyratron designed for pulse operation. It features a positive grid configuration and includes a built-in hydrogen reservoir to maintain stable operation over time.

Key Features:

• Hydrogen-filled: Ensures fast switching and high voltage hold-off capability.
• Triode configuration: Provides simple control with three electrodes (anode, cathode, and grid).
• Positive grid: Enables triggering with a positive pulse, simplifying circuit design.
• Pulse operation: Optimized for generating high-power pulses in applications like radar and lasers.
• Hydrogen reservoir: Maintains stable hydrogen pressure for consistent performance.
