    Dear colleagues,

    I'm not Polish but I'm as passionate about electronics as you are. Because I received several EBL21 tubes, I'm looking for a schematic (or links) for a tube amplifier with EBL21 used in Push-Pull mode. I have searched on the internet but I didn't find, only SE mode.

    If you can help me with a link or information I will appreciate it.

    Thank you in advance!

    Thank you for the link. Do you have the specifications about output transformer? It must have been manufactured.

    Unfortunately. I do not have the parameters of this transformer. And we are unlikely to find them. There were few copies of this radio receiver. One, maybe the only one, has my friend. I revived him. Works.

    The EBL21 lamp has very similar parameters to the 6V6 lamp. It can easily work with PP Ra = 9kohm and Ra = 10kohm transformers.
    For less excessive applications it seems possible to use PP transformers dedicated to EL84 / 6AQ5 with Ra = 8kohm.

    The diagram in # 5 lacks the grid polarity in the phase inverter (pin 7).

    Buddy, WP! Thank you for being careful and for correcting the mistake. It never occurred to me that such a solid source of information could allow for such an elementary oversight, good science for the future - Trust him, but check!

    Well, the net cannot "hang in the air". There must be a resistor in the grid.

    After all, it is between the grid and the ground with a value of zero ohms. I can assure you that there is no error in the schematic, it will work as is.

    Well, it is not. It is infinite.
    In this arrangement, the mesh should be a little (1 - 2 volts) below 1/2 ua.
    So a divisor of e.g. 1 M +10 k / 1M between Ua and mass.
    Then the grid will be approx. (-) 1.5 V to the cathode and will not 'float'.

    We are talking about the same mesh (pin7) of the heptode part of ECH21 in the last photo?

    I think you are talking about two different patterns.
    My schematic from ECH21 in which the heptode part works as a voltage amplifier is alive copied from the ECH21 documentation according to the link above.
    The negative voltage of the grid pin 6 will be used for voltage gain control (the lamp is a selectode).

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around the search for schematics and information regarding the EBL21 tube used in a Push-Pull amplifier configuration. A user expressed difficulty finding relevant resources, as most available schematics pertain to Single-Ended (SE) configurations. Responses included links to specific schematics and diagrams, as well as discussions on output transformer specifications, suggesting that EBL21 tubes have similar parameters to 6V6 tubes, which can work with Push-Pull transformers rated at 8kΩ to 10kΩ. There were also technical clarifications regarding grid polarity in phase inverter circuits and the necessity of resistors in the grid to prevent floating voltages.
