DEVELOPMENT GMI-32B-1 (P-19 MODULATOR VALVE)
Project Description
GMI-32B-1 is a Hard Gas Field Thyratron valve. It is used to control the operation of magnetron oscillator by producing short duration DC pulses of high amplitude. The Proposed system will replace the existing thyratron valve in P-19 radar.
