What is Snubber Networks for DC Drive Protection about?
This technical note discusses snubber networks in DC drives and the need for additional protection components to prevent SCR malfunctions from power disturbances. SCRs can fail if gated on by rapid voltage transitions rather than intended gate pulses. While isolation transformers and other equipment usually limit disturbances, lightning or large motor starts can sometimes cause issues. Extra protection like isolation transformers, line reactors, R-C snubbers and varistors are recommended. Larger drives wher
