IDX Snubber
Terminals were designed to clamp and absorb voltage spiking above 39
Volts that occurs as electrical circuits with magnetic windings, such
as motors, contactors and solenoids are disconnected from power. The
spikes that occur can disrupt the operation of, or even damage
electronic controls such as timers, acceptors, displays etc. The most
common voltage spikes are generated as a service is turned off when
the bay rotary switch is turned from service "A" to service "B" etc.
The solenoids, starters, and any type of inductive device will
generate voltage spikes on the 24VAC power supplies that power other
electronic components. These spikes can generate false coin counts
(EXTRA TIME); can cause the acceptors to miss coins (LOST TIME); can
cause the timer to latch on (FREE TIME); can cause configuration
memory to be changed (IMPROPER OPERATION); or, the spike can break
down and fry the electronic components on the inputs, outputs, or
power supplies of this equipment.. All of these cost the car wash
owner money and customers dissatisfaction with the equipment. For
additional technical information on inductive voltage spikes and their
characteristics, seeIDX Application Note
