I have a 24vdc coil (1.8 w) that I am thinking of putting a capacitor in series with to cause a delay of about 1-2 seconds. First, do you think this would work? Second, if it would, what size would I need to maintain 24v for 1-2 seconds.
This idea might be in far fetched, but I thought I would give it a try. I have a P/E with a 100ma output I am firing the solenoid, but want a 1-2 sec delay for the P/E to clear before I de-energize the coil. I am trying to keep it simple and cheap because I am installing roughly 400 of these.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated...
