The vacuum tube had been designed and manufactured at OKB "Swetlana" in the 70s-80s of the last century. The quantity of manufactured tubes - about 80, had allowed the accelerator operating till now.

For 20 years modulator vacuum tube GMI-44A successfully operated in DTL RF system of INR Linac. The vacuum tube had been designed and manufactured at OKB "Swetlana" in the 70s-80s of the last century. The quantity of manufactured tubes - about 80, had allowed the accelerator operating till now. Manufacture of the tubes was stopped In the mid 80s. Attempts of the GMI-44A manufacture restoration or repair were unsuccessful ones. As it turned out, the only decision in the circumstances was using of 200 MHz powerful pulse triode GI-71A as modulator tube. The vacuum tubes GI-71A were installed for the last ten years in all output RF power amplifiers (PA) of INR Linac instead of RF pulse triode GI-54A. In the paper some problems appearing after modulator vacuum tube replacement are discussed.
