• BAKELITE BLOCK CONDENSERS •

STANDARD AND UNIVERSAL TERMINAL STYLES

PHILCO by-pass condensers in black moulded bakelite containers range in values from .01 Mfd. to .18 Mfd. These condensers are all treated in the special Philco vacuum process which eliminates all traces of moisture and allows the condenser to be thoroughly impregnated. The connections are brought out to tinned terminal lugs.

NOTE: This list covers 1930 through 1938 types only. For parts not listed see bottom of this page. For information on other Bakelite Block condenser types not listed below, be sure to get a copy of this comprehensive reference guide:
