SPECTRUM TUBES - gas discharge tubes
PA3786-001 through PA3786-11
Spectrum Tubes
This type of gas discharge tube is known also as a Geissler Tube.
These tubes can be excited either by an IEC Rhumkorff’s Coil EM3450-001 or by
a special IEC Power Supply designed for the purpose HL3785-001.
The HL3785-001 Spectrum Tube Power Supply is a very high voltage instrument
designed to reliably operate these tubes. A deep insulated socket is mounted on
the power supply housing and a long stainless steel earthed extension rod and
contact clip allows the tube to be held securely and vertically without using risky
cables or a doubtful remote holder.
The tubes can be purchased separately or a set of 6 tubes can be purchased as a
set.
