This is a 9-pin ceramic vacuum tube socket designed for use in audio amplifiers and similar electronic devices. It features an aluminum shield cap with a built-in spring that helps dissipate heat and protect the electronic tube from damage. The socket is compatible with various tube models, including 12AX7, 12AU7, ECC83, and others. It is made of durable ceramic with thick gold-plated pins to ensure long-lasting performance and resistance to corrosion. The package includes two units, making it suitable for installations requiring multiple sockets.
The socket has a height of 53mm and an installation diameter of 3mm, with a spacing of 28mm between the installation holes. These dimensions are important for ensuring proper fit and alignment with the PCB board and the electronic tube. The outer diameter of the shield is approximately 0.96 inches, which contributes to its stability and heat dissipation capabilities. The design allows for easy installation by aligning the snap and pushing the socket base into place.
The ceramic construction provides excellent insulation and durability, while the gold plating ensures good electrical conductivity and resistance to oxidation. The aluminum shield cap enhances thermal management, which is crucial for maintaining the performance and longevity of vacuum tubes in high-power applications. This product is ideal for audiophiles, electronics hobbyists, and professionals working on tube amplifier projects.
Installation involves connecting the base hole with the pin of the electronic tube and soldering the foot to the PCB board. It is important to confirm the model and size before purchasing to ensure compatibility with the intended tube and circuit board. The product is designed for use in analog audio systems where vacuum tubes are employed for their warm sound characteristics.
