[Milsurplus] A relay transient suppression circuit.....?

[Hubert Miller]

What were the operating conditions the nomograph wanted for input to determine the snubber components?

Back on the days of 50 baud telex we did keying on the 120 volt 60 millamp loops with mechanical relays or transistor keying circuits. We had an RC snubber network across each keying device. They were so pervasive that RC snubber networks were packaged in a form similar to a radial mylar capacitor.

 

I used to have a nomograph to calculate the values. I think I still have some of those snubber devices at home.
