About the RS 1072C
The RS 1072C is a power triode manufactured by Thomson / Thales. Thales RS series air-cooled metal-ceramic triode for end stage RF amplification in industrial generators and RF heating equipment.
Key ratings of the RS 1072C include tube type Triode, cooling Forced air, construction Metal-ceramic and cathode Thorium tungsten.
Typical applications are RF end stage amplifiers, industrial RF heating, RF generators and industrial transmitters. Notable features: RS 1072 series triode, air-cooled design, metal-ceramic construction and industrial RF duty.
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.
