The 9-pin '''B9D (Magnoval) tube base''' (IEC 67-I-36a) is a larger variant of the {{B9A base}} developed for higher-powered Europeantubes such as the [[8608]]/EL5070, PL509/PL519 TV sweep tubes, etc. | The 9-pin '''B9D (Magnoval) tube base''' (IEC 67-I-36a) is a larger variant of the {{B9A base}} developed for higher-powered Europeantubes such as the [[8608]]/EL5070, PL509/PL519 TV sweep tubes, etc. | ||

The similar [[Novar base]] used by comparable American tubes has the same pin circle geometry but the tube have a diameter of only 1.02 mm (0.038"). Inserting Magnoval tubes into Novar sockets by force will widen the latter's contacts, thereby damaging the socket. | The similar [[Novar base]] used by comparable American tubes has the same pin circle geometry but the tube have a diameter of only 1.02 mm (0.038").
