5Ts4M
Dual-anode vacuum rectifier
Description
Purpose of 5Ts4M
The 5Ts4M is a compact dual-anode rectifier valve for converting mains-frequency alternating current into direct current. It is intended for full-wave transformer power supplies in radio and electronic equipment. The two anodes share an indirectly heated oxide cathode.

Construction and features
The valve has a glass single-base construction and an octal Ts1-1-4V base. It may operate in any position. With a 2 × 400 V transformer secondary, the reference operating data specify a 3.3 kΩ anode-circuit resistance and a 4 µF filter capacitor. The compact envelope is limited to 92 mm in height and 33 mm in diameter.
Selection and installation
The 5Ts4M designation must be checked in full because similarly named rectifiers may differ in base wiring and permissible load. Before installation, confirm the heater circuit, transformer voltage and filter arrangement against the equipment documentation.
The operating principle is outlined in the vacuum tube reference article. Other available types are listed in our receiving and amplifier tube category.
Ordering 5Ts4M
Minimum order: 200 pieces. When requesting a quotation, specify the complete designation and, where possible, the equipment in which the device will be installed.
More components are available in the receiving and amplifying tube category.
