| 1. | A hydraulic snubber allows for pipe deflection under normal operating conditions.
|
| 2. | A mechanical snubber uses mechanical means to provide the restraint force.
|
| 3. | Snubber circuits usually incorporate film capacitors, mostly polypropylene film caps.
|
| 4. | Of course this episode tells less about the snubber than the snubbed.
|
| 5. | Cooling for the thyristors and snubber resistors is usually provided by deionised water.
|
| 6. | The image at right shows an isometric view of one style of mechanical snubber.
|
| 7. | Reseting the snubber circuit usually places a minimum on time requirement on GTO based circuits.
|
| 8. | With no snubber of any sort installed, it will slowly accumulate damage and wear.
|
| 9. | This base design is supplemented by a snubber circuit consisting of a few passive components.
|
| 10. | One way to cope with this limitation is to design a suitable RC or RCL snubber network.
