Hi folks,

the only tube with a flashed getter I know of is the XN-1:

To be honest: I will not use getters at the moment. There is so much glasswork to figure out for me, that is the part that I will focus on in the next months. :-)

Hi Dylan,

flashed getters are not used in nixies (I havent seen it at least), just some VFD tube use flashed getters. Flashed getters leave a coating on a glass envelope of the tube - we don't want that. I think that kind of getter needs only initial activation by heat which could be done by induction heating as well as in the case of flashed getters. Look to IN-14 nixie, there is exactly the same pellet.

The only matter to solve will be attaching the pellet to a wire, but I think that will be possible to do by spot welding - inspired by IN-14.

Thanks,

Dalibor

    Hey Dalibor and others-
       I don't feel that these are the right getters for nixie tubes.
       The literature lists them as thermally active- they only absorb
    if you put them somewhere hot.
       Many styles of getters are made this way; most tubes do run
    quite hot, beacuse of the filaments..

       There isn't anywhere in a nixie tube that is constantly
    100C-200C. (That's part of the magic of nixies, of course)

       You really want some flashed barium getters; they absorb gasses
    at any temperature.

       -Dylan

        Hello guys,

        I've got an offer on getters, tech info attached.. the price
        is approx. 5pcs/1 eur. Is anyone interested in it? I will
        place an order in several weeks, I may send some pieces sealed
        in argon filled tube..
