Operation
Transient Voltage Filters
R-C networks (Resistance-Capaci-
tance) are applied to circuits where
transient electrical voltages can cause
a malfunction or damage in solid state
controls or control systems (PLCs,
CNCs, NCs, Solid State Counters,
etc.) The RCSs are typically applied
in parallel with single phase inductive
loads (motor starter coils, contactor
coils, solenoid valves, etc.) to absorb
the transients generated when the load
is de-energized.
