Tel tron Diode S
Product Code : JA-APE-7297
The Tel tron Diode S (SKU JA-APE-7297) is a high-vacuum electron tube with a thermionic cathode, supplied by JaincoLab for atomic and electronic physics practicals. As a thermionic diode tube it lets students heat the cathode, apply a voltage and measure the emission current that flows, and then use the same tube to see how a diode rectifies. It belongs to the Tel tron S series and suits B.Sc and engineering physics laboratories as well as senior-school demonstrations.
Specifications
The Diode S is a two-electrode, high-vacuum tube in which a heated thermionic cathode emits electrons that are collected when a voltage is applied; the listing gives its construction and uses, while electrical ratings and dimensions are confirmed on the quotation.

Applications of the thermionic diode tube
In the laboratory the Diode S is used to show that a heated cathode releases electrons, to relate the measured emission current to the voltage applied, and to demonstrate that the tube conducts in one direction only, which is the basis of rectification.
- Measuring emission current as the applied voltage is changed and plotting the characteristic curve
- Demonstrating thermionic emission from a heated cathode in senior-secondary physics
- Showing rectification: current flows through the tube in one direction only
- Diode characteristic experiments in B.Sc and engineering physics practicals

Frequently asked questions
What can students measure with the Tel tron Diode S?
They can measure the emission current from the heated thermionic cathode as the applied voltage is varied, plot the characteristic, and show that the tube rectifies by conducting in one direction only.
Which holder does the tube fit?
The Tel tron Tube Holder S is the mounting point for the S-series tubes and accessories. It is a separate listing and can be added to the same quotation.
Are power supplies included?
No power supply is part of this listing. Tell us which supplies and meters your laboratory already has, and the items needed are confirmed on the quotation.
