The voltage across the solenoid was still 4.4 VDC which was enough to hold the solenoid in its energized state.
I remember from 6 years ago when I worked at Solar Turbines we used to put a passive device like a resistor or a diode across the solenoids . Hopefully I will find a copy of one of my projects at home that has the information.
My question is this. Why is it that solenoids require special attention? If it is a resistor or a diode, why are they required for ordinary 24 VDC outputs.
Thanks
