CV2478 magnetron

From its construction this device is probably a high-power magnetron, but no information is currently available. It appears to be water cooled.

See also CV2475 and CV2477.

This device measures 280mm left to right and 230mm top to bottom as shown. The flange is 108mm square.

The output flange, above, measures 108mm square. The aperture is 60x28mm. The connector shown above connects to the two tubes running above and below the central glass section as shown in the left hand picture. The tubes have holes in the rear so this is probably to air cool the output window.

Below is a picture of the reverse side of the device, and the top view.
