Re: VTTC from Eimac 8755 on eBay



Original poster: Mddeming@xxxxxxx

Hi,

Having a max power rating of 50 KW, (Max V  X  Max A)
but a "typical" power output of only 650 W implies that it is
intended for very low duty cycle ( ~1.3%) pulsed operation.
For TC use, I think you'd be happier with one rated >1KW
Continuous power (CCW)

*I'd like some advice from the group on a VTTC ...

There is an Eimac 8755 RF Triode available on
eBay, which seems to me would work well as the
core of a reasonably powerful VTTC.   135
amplification, 3GHz max freq, Anode V 8Kv and Amp
7.5A ... apparently you can cool it with fluids,
so it seems you could make a pretty powerful circuit with it.
Would this be a good choice (with appropriate
power source ... suggestions?) and John Freau's Staccato controller?
