XN3 Nixie

XN3 Nixie XN3 Nixie lit

Hivac horizontal view 'Numicator' nixie with 14 mm. digits 0-9. No decimal point is provided. Equivalent to the XN1 and similar to the GN6 but the currents are lower in this tube. The pin out (pins are numbered clockwise from the gap, looking at the tube from below) is :-

Pin 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11
Electrode a k(0) k(1) k(2) k(3) k(4) k(5) k(6) k(7) k(8) k(9)

Cathode currents should be in the range 0.7 mA (for full coverage) to 1.2 mA (average). The normal maintaining voltage is 115 V.

A off-site pointer data sheet can be found at off-site pointer Frank Philipse's excellent site .

This tube was kindly loaned for photography by Dr. Dave Knight. He has an excellent page on nixie tubes.
