ITK 12-1 Water-Cooled Triode for Industrial RF — 40 kW

The ITK 12-1 is a power triode manufactured by Thomson / Thales. Thales ITK 12-1 water-cooled metal-ceramic triode with 40 kW output at up to 120 MHz for industrial RF induction heating, wood gluing, and plastic welding systems.

Key ratings of the ITK 12-1 include tube type Triode, max output power 40 kW, max plate dissipation 15 kW, max frequency 120 MHz, construction Metal-ceramic coaxial and anode cooling Water.

Typical applications are industrial RF induction heating, wood gluing, plastic welding, pulse oscillators and high-frequency dielectric heating. Notable features: 40 kW water-cooled output, 15 kW plate dissipation, 120 MHz capable and water-cooled anode.

Power triodes are three-electrode grid tubes used as RF oscillators and amplifiers in industrial RF heating (plastic welding, induction heating, drying), RF-excited CO₂ lasers, broadcast transmitters and particle accelerators. In oscillator service they work with vacuum capacitors in the tank and matching circuits.
