2K CD105 The Titan High Power Capacitor Discharge Unit
High Power 6 Points Simultaneously
Main Description
2K CD105 The Titan CDU Capacitor Discharge Unit High Power 6 Points Simultaneously
The purpose of capacitor discharge units is to store up electricity in a capacitor. The electrical charge is released, on throwing a switch, as a burst of a much larger current than a transformer can supply.
Most types of point motors are not in fact motors but are solenoids.
When two solenoid coils are placed end to end a forward and reverse motion can be created. A solenoid requires a short sharp punch of current to switch them. These high currents can damage switches and indeed cause points motors to overheat and burn out. A Capacitor discharge unit gets over this problem by supplying this high current as a high
energy pulse to the points motor solenoid which in turn operates the points. The purpose of capacitor discharge units is to store up electricity in a capacitor. The electrical charge is released, on throwing a switch, as a pulse of a much larger current. A Capacitor Discharge Unit is normally powered with AC, generally a voltage of around 16 Volts.
The High Power CDU can operate up to 6 point sets simultaneously
The CDU can be supplied with either an AC or DC voltage up to 24v. Operating from 24 volts typically gives 4 times the power. In most cases a voltage of 16v AC is ideal to power a CDU. The output of a CDU is always DC.
The High Power unit will power up to 8sets of points simultaneously.
