About the RS 3080CJ

The RS 3080CJ is a power triode manufactured by Thomson / Thales. Thales RS 3080CJ water-cooled metal-ceramic triode for very high power RF end stage applications in industrial generators and laser cutting systems.

Key ratings of the RS 3080CJ include tube type Triode, construction Metal-ceramic, anode cooling Water, cathode Thorium tungsten and max frequency 100 MHz.

Typical applications are very high power RF end stage, industrial induction heating, CO₂ laser end stage and high-power RF generators. Notable features: RS 3080 high-power water-cooled, metal-ceramic construction, water-cooled anode and thomson/Thales proven design.

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.
