Rediline relay noise

[mrkane1952]

Greetings All:

Anyone have a suggested modification to cure the noisy Rediline relay?
Perhaps a replacement latching relay that won't hum? I would like to
keep the option of using the Rediline, but the noise is too obnoxious
when in an otherwise quiet environment.

Thanks--

M, I do not have a Rediline to compare but I do know this.
Many times a coil will hum because the laminations of the
metal becomes loose. I have seen this come up before on a
forum posting but that is the extent of my recall. You might
try insulating the base of the coil from the enclosure with
some stand-off insulators to reduce the resonance.

M.R.,

Replace the relay and the noise will be gone. If ya want, I'll see if
I still have one around here. I put it in and then shortly after,
installed a Xantrex 2,500 watt inverter/charger. So, the rlay comes
out permanently with the inverter update.

Where r u from?

Does your dash a/c work?
