6D22S

Description

Electron tube 6D22S (6Д22С rus.) is a power diode for use as a half-wave B+ rectifier in high-quality audio amplifiers. Originally intended for color TV damper-diode service, the 6D22S is similar to the 6DL3 except for base connections and some ratings. The 6D22S features very slow warmup (30 seconds typical), making it an excellent, rugged power-on delay device for audio amplifiers. Warm-up time is longer than that of common rectifier tubes (such as the 5AR4/GZ34), it is lower in cost than electronic delay relays. Heater may be operated from the same supply as other tubes in amplifier, up to Vb=600V. High pulse current capability gives sound quality which issuperior to commonly-used rectifier tubes.
