Hi,

The exact model is written directly on the typeshield under the word ANLAGE.

Like here HMZL34/OKM

Unfortunately your typeshield image is too blurry.

the type number looks like VR 48 ST. With PHilips/NSF the "VR" typically stands for "Vliegtuig Radio" or aircraft radio. This looks to be a transmitter, so it most likely it is the transmitter of the VR 48 aircraft radio installation. Unfortunately I can not find any more information on the VR 48 set, so it is unclear if it was made before or during the war and who used it. It is likely however that it was made in a very small series (the serial number "069" and the absence of information point at this), probably aimed at the civil aviation market.
