Wesrem Electric Company
No.300-A & 300-B VACUUM TUBES

Classification-Moderate power, filamentary triodes for Class A service

These tubes are identical except for the location of the bayonet pin in the base.

ApplicatiOIl-Audimfrequency amplifier in positions where power outputs of approximately ten
watts or less are required at relatively low plate voltages.

Dimensions-Dimensions, outline diagrams of the tubes and bases, and the anangement of elec-
trode connections to the base terminals are shown in Figures 1 and 2.

Western Electric Company
No.300-A & 300-B VACUUM TUBES

Base and Mounting-These vacuum tubes employ medium, four-pin thrust type bases suitable
for use in Western Electric 14313 or similar sockets. The BOOB tube has the bayonet pin so located
that it may also be mounted in a Western Electric 100M, 115B or similar socket.

The tubes may be mounted in either a vertical or horizontal position. If mounted in a hori»
zontal position, the plane of the filament, which is indicated in Figure 2, should be vertical.

Average Direct Interelectrode Capacitances

Grid to filament. . . , 9 pal

Plate to filament . ............................... . . 4.3mm
Filament Rating

Filament voltage .......................................... 5.0 volts, a.c. or d.c.

Nominal filament current ................... . . , . . ,,,,,, 1.2 amperes

The filaments of these tubes are designed to operate on a voltage basis and should be operated
at as near the rated voltage as possible. hen alternating current is used for heating the filament,
the grid and plate returns should be connected to a center tap on the secondary of the filament
transformer.

Plate»Current characteristics for a typical tube are shown in Figure 3 as functions of grid bias,
for alternating-Current filament supply. The corresponding amplificationifactor, plate-resistance,
and transconductance characteristics are given in Figures 4, 5 and 6, respectively. When direct-
current filament supply is used, and the grid and plate returns are connected to the negative ent
)f the filament, the same Characteristics are applicable if 3.5 is subtracted from the numerical valu

{each grid bias.
