Solenoid resistor and diode help
So I bought a used alltrax 500 amp controller and solenoid as I mentioned in my other thread. This solenoid does not have a resistor or diode with it. Do I just use my factory diode and resistor or do I need to purchase different ones for this solenoid? If I need to buy them, where can I get them? I attached a picture of the solenoid that I bought. Also, is this solenoid ok if I convert to 48 volts later? As always, I appreciate any help on this.

Re: Solenoid resistor and diode help
Here is what Alltrax has to say about diodes and resisters.
http://www.alltraxinc.com/files/Doc1...ns-Learned.pdf As far as if it will work on 48 volts I can't tell you. The picture needs to show the voltage rating. What does it say on it. It should tell you if it's ok for 48 volts. |

As far as the solenoid goes, it's worn off so I can't see the voltage rating on it but I did google the part number and it states that it is for 36 and 48 volt applications. I guess I just need to change to the proper resistor when I do the conversion. Its a 400/1000 amp solenoid. Anyway, your post helped me out alot and I appreciate it. I'm learning slowly so maybe some day I will be able to help out here on the forum some too. |

No problem. If I can help you in anyway just LMK.
