A rack-mount version, the RM15 was also sold.  There is also a 515A.   
A rack-mount version, the RM15 was also sold.  There is also a 515A (serial numbers 101 through 1000 are "Type 515", 1001 and upward are "Type 515A").   


The 515A has a Z-axis input and slightly higher vertical sensitivity than the 515.
Maximum vertical sensitivity is 100 mV/Div for the 515 and 50 mV/Div for the 515A.
The [[516]] is essentially a dual-trace version of the 515.
The 515 and 515A are fan-cooled, both in benchtop and rackmount forms.

The 515A has a Z-axis input and slightly higher vertical sensitivity than the 515.
The maximum vertical sensitivity is 100 mV/Div for the 515 and 50 mV/Div for the 515A.
The [[516]] is essentially a dual-trace version of the 515.
The 515 and 515A use the [[T55|T55 CRT CRT]]. P31 [[phosphor]] was standard.
Serial numbers 101 through 1000 are "Type 515". 
Starting with serial number 1001, they are "Type 515A".
The 515 and 515A are fan-cooled, both in benchtop and rackmount forms.
