The 4CX1500B is a metal-ceramic, forced air-cooled beam power tetrode with an oxide cathode. The tube operates at low voltage and large current and has low intermodulation distortion and low grid cut off voltage. The quality of low intermodulation distortion makes the tube suitable for use as radio and audio frequency linear amplifier.
