Tube tester settings

I have a ModWright Ph9.0 phono pre amp. I want to test the 6c45 tubes. I have a B&K 600 tester but no listing for this tube. Does anyone have the settings for this tube. Heater, A,B,&C. numbers. Thanks

Sens 37

B=4
C=8
D=2
PRESS=1
Second triode
A=5
B=4
C=8
D=7

Sorry that's all I got... I'll look some more when I have time.

Unfortunately I don’t know the correct settings for testing a Russian 6C45pi on a B&K 600 tester, but be careful with mixing “apples and oranges” in your testing.

6C45 is NOT anything like a 5687!
Single triode vs dual triode
6V only vs 12/6v heaters
high mu (~50) vs low mu (~16)
high (for a triode) vs med/low transconductance.
