Hello all...we have a 48V-12V converter powering a motor that runs normally at 2A.
However, we activate this with a relay, which works fine, but on initial power up, due to many different factors with the brush motor, there's a power on spike at up to 16-19A.
This spike lasts for just milliseconds, then we're steady at the 2A and all is fine.
Problem is, the spike resets the 10A converter (for just a second) since it's drawing 16-19A, so the electronic circuitry resets and the NO relay switches off again.
Anyway, if we can contain this very brief, powerful and inconsistent spike, we should be good.
Any cost effective suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
Eric
