Datasheet
The data to be read in conjunction with the Hydrogen
Thyratron Preamble.
ABRIDGED DATA
Hollow anode, deuterium filled, five-gap thyratron with ceramic
envelope, featuring high peak current, high rate of rise of
current, low jitter and voltage/current reversal.
The patented hollow anode structure enables the tube to cope
with inverse voltage and current without consequent reduction
in its high voltage hold-off capability due to electrode damage.
A reservoir normally operated from a separate heater supply is
incorporated. The reservoir heater voltage can be adjusted to a
value consistent with anode voltage hold-off in order to achieve
the fastest rate of rise of current possible from the tube in the
circuit.

Cooling
For all applications, cooling by oil or coolant immersion is
desirable. Further information is contained in the relevant
section of the Preamble.
At and below 55 kV the CX1594 may be cooled by forced-air
directed mainly onto the base, and the ceramic envelope should
be maintained below the maximum rated temperature. An air
flow of at least 2.83 m
mechanical layout, will be necessary to keep the tube operating
temperatures under the limits specified below.
In addition to 300 W of heater power, the tube dissipates from
100 W per ampere average anode current, rising to 300 W/A at
the highest rates of rise and fall of anode current.
The cathode end of the tube must be cooled whenever heater
voltages are applied, since the cathode flange will reach a
temperature of 120 8C above ambient in the absence of cooling.
