RC snubber network for arc suppression, non-polarized
Grade:
Industrial / Control / UL/CSA-recognized option available
Dielectric/Construction:
Quencharc is an RC suppression network that combines a metallized polyester capacitor with an integrated series resistor in a UL94V-0 flame-retardant epoxy-coated assembly.
Rated Voltage:
125 VAC to 660 VAC
Capacitance:
0.1 μF to 1.0 μ
Sizes:
The series includes several package sizes depending on capacitance/voltage/type
Paktron's Quencharc is an energy-efficient RC snubber network designed for arc suppression and transient control. It is used for relay contact protection, dv/dt suppression on thyristors and triacs, noise reduction on controllers and drivers, and EMI/RFI reduction. The RC network suppresses the transient voltage that appears when contacts open, helping prevent arcing while also limiting in rush current when contacts close.
