TRANSIENT
VOLTAGE SUPPRESSOR
JIMCO has developed a
series of transient suppressors for passenger cars, industrial, heavy
duty truck, construction and marine use.
What is a transient? It is a short "burst" of very high
voltage resulting from the sudden release of stored energy. Transient
voltage "spikes" are very pronounced in today's electrical
systems due to the growing number of accessories in use. Examples are:
air conditioning compressor magnetic clutches, cooling fan magnetic
clutches on large trucks, power windows and alternator load dump.
Alternator load dump is when the stator energy is dissipated as very
high voltage. Alternator load dump can damage the diodes, regulator
and/or diode trio.
Transient voltages have little effect on mechanical or
electro-mechanical devices but are devastating to solid state
components. JIMCO transient suppressors use components that were
created by the computer industry to protect valuable computers.
Two models with universal application are available, both can be used
on 12 volt and 24 volt vehicles. They can be installed at the
component to be protected or at the component suspected of creating
the transient.
