- Looking for information on hydrogen thyrator
Greetings, gentlemen. I have come into possession of what I have been told is a hydrogen thyrator.
Of course I have done the requisite Googling, but do any of you old EEs have any insight on the item? Original application, general manufacture date, usage today, value, precautions in handling, etc.? I have been pretty cavalier about moving this thing around and have been told to be careful with it because it may have some radiation or dangerous gases present inside, so I would like to know if I should not turn it into a paperweight or be close to it at all. I'm also curious to know what would happen if the glass were to be broken; as in, would it explode?
I would be much obliged for any information you can provide.
