L496D Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The L496D is a vacuum pentode from ST, designed for radio and TV reception applications. It features a filament voltage of 4V and a filament current of 1.1A. This tube utilizes a Europe 5-Pin, B5 base.

 

Introduced in 1933, the L496D was part of Philips' introduction of output pentodes in Europe, establishing a 7k-ohm load standard. It is identical to several other part numbers including RES964, E443H, PP4101, RTP4, and P435. A similar tube, the LAP519, is noted as a slightly different, normally replaceable option. The L496D has predecessors like the L427D and L491D, and a successor in the AL1.

 

This component was widely used in various radio models throughout the mid-20th century, with documented usage from 1933 to 1938. Its design contributed to the evolution of audio output stages in consumer electronics.
