IT IS ELECTRICALLY EQUIV~ ALENT TO TYPES 6L6 AND 6L6G, EXCEPT THAT PLATE AND SCREEN DISSIPATIONS. HAVE BEEN INCREASED APPROXIMATELY 20%. THE USE OF SPECIALLY COATED GRIDS AND ANODES GREATLY INCREASES ITS ABILITY TO WITHSTAND OVERLOAD CON- DITIONS FOR SHORT PERIODS OF TIME AND PROVIDES IMPROVEMENT IN CONTINUITY OF SERVICE. THE GLONGB EMPLOYS A MICANOL BARRIER BASE WHICH ABSORBS LESS MOISTURE AND REDUCES THE CHANCE OF VOLTAGE BREAKDOWN BETWEEN ADJACENT PINS. SINCE THiS TUBE MUST BE ABLE TO WITHSTAND SEVERE MECHANICAL TESTS TO MEET TEST SPECIFICATIONS, THE 6LOWGB IS ESPECIALLY SUITED FOR USE IN INDUSTRIAL AND MILITARY EQUIPMENT WHICH MAY BE SUBJECTED TO SEVERE SHOCK AND VIBRATION, SUCH AS AIRBORNE EQUIPMENT.
