The Type 722-D is a laboratory quality dual section precision variable capacitor. Its direct reading on both sections read from a drum mounted on the roto shaft. The rotor is mounted on ball bearings in a aluminum casting driven by a precision worm drive. The rotor is electrically attached to the frame with silver overlay contacts.  The two stators are brought out to separate terminals on the panel with the shared rotor terminal. The rotor terminal is a the same potential as the panel and copper lined walnut case. A correction chart is mounted on the panel for that particular capacitor. The capacitor is supplied with fitted wooden carrying case.

The General Radio 722-D Precision Capacitor was introduced in Catalog J (1936) and remained available through Catalog P (1959).

The Type 722-D is a laboratory quality dual section precision variable capacitor. Its direct reading on both sections read from a drum mounted on the roto shaft. The rotor is mounted on ball bearings in a aluminum casting driven by a precision worm drive. The rotor is electrically attached to the frame with silver overlay contacts. The two stators are brought out to separate terminals on the panel with the shared rotor terminal. The rotor terminal is a the same potential as the panel and copper lined walnut case. A correction chart is mounted on the panel for that particular capacitor. The capacitor is supplied with fitted wooden carrying case.
