The
waveguide must be pressurised to a minimum pressure of 35 ib/in2 absolute to prevent waveguide breakdown and to provide cooling air across the valve output window.
A cooling pipe is attached alongside the single connecting lead. This appears to blow onto the glass stem, exiting the other side through a hole. It also appears to form one connection.
Above is a picture of the glass component with the cooling pipe removed, revealing a connection to the innards.
On one
side is an aperture leading to cooling fins, on the other a waveguide
aperture.
The glass stem. The number 34385 is marked on the inside structure.
