Default Medical stimulator

This is another of the items from my friend's late husband's collection. It isn't "household" but this seems the nearest category. I'm not posting it in the Offered section because I suspect no-one would want it, but perhaps we can find out a bit about it.

This web page http://www.simoncornwell.com/urbex/h...e130702/96.htm describes some related equipment though not this particular model.

The single valve is a PCL83. I don't know what the brown cylindrical component between the valve and the transformer is. Whatever it may be, it is supported by a pair of thin blades that seem to be slipped in between the transformer laminations.

Between that component and the front panel is a glass object, a bit like a miniature valve but thinner, with a few wires coming from the bottom end and going through a grommet to the circuitry under the chassis.

Any thoughts about these components?
