Surge Suppression Diagram
If you connect an SLC 500 controller triac output to control an
inductive load, use varistors to suppress noise. Choose a varistor that
is appropriate for the application. We recommend the following surge
suppressors for triac outputs when switching 120V ac inductive loads:
• Harris MOV, part number V220 MA2A
• Allen-Bradley MOV, catalog number 599-K04 or 599-KA04,
Series C or later.
Consult the varistor manufacturer’s data sheet when selecting a
varistor for your application.
Allen-Bradley surge suppressors recommended for use with
Allen-Bradley relays, contactors, and starters are shown in the table
below.

ATTENTION
Damage could occur to SLC 500 triac outputs if you use
suppressors having RC networks and the triac load current is 15
mA or less.
