The CV310 is described as a Strobotron and looks similar to the GN10 thyratron.

Seen from the anode end, the long discharge path can be seen.

The name Strobotron suggests that the emitted light is an important feature.

The wide glass tube envelope is 28 mm in diameter and, excluding the UX4 base pins, is 93 mm tall.
