Testing 6EU7 tube with Accurate 157 tester

I recently bought an Accurate 157 tube tester. I wanted to check some 6EU7 tubes but I find that the tester manual doesn't list that tube. Anyone?

Hello Steevo468,
The 12AX7 has similar parameters as 6EU7,but different socket pinout.
Make a socket adapter.
Good luck!

Hello Steevo!

The 6EU7 is the same as the ECC83/12AX7 electron tube, only the wiring is different. Make a conversion socket for it, and you can measure it based on the mentioned tubes.
