XN3 Nixie
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 :-

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

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