Description
CDU (Capacitor Discharge Unit)
This board was designed for those who has a power supply that cannot provide enough current to move solenoid actuators.
In rest condition, it can store the current in the large capacitor and, when needed (when the solenoid has to move), it can rapidly discharge the capacitor providing enough current.
