Description
This commercial-grade electronic fuse is engineered with a continuous electrical rating of precisely 500 Milliamps. It serves as a highly precise, low-current sacrificial safety link within delicate instrument loops, safeguarding sensitive micro-electronics, sensory equipment, and printed circuit boards from minor, prolonged overcurrent states.
Features
- Designated as a fast-acting (quick-acting) fuse, this device possesses zero intentional built-in time delay. The internal wire element is engineered to melt almost instantaneously upon detecting a short circuit or severe overload, providing critical high-speed thermal protection for digital display meters, sensory circuits, and solid-state controllers that cannot survive transient electrical surges.
- This miniature glass fuse carries a maximum operational voltage rating of 250V AC. It delivers a calibrated short-circuit interrupting capacity of up to 35 Amps at 250V AC (and up to 10,000 Amps at 125V AC), ensuring the internal element safely isolates low-energy electrical faults before they can damage surrounding component architecture.
- This fuse utilizes the universally common European standard 5mm x 20 mm (approximately 0.2-inch x 0.79-inch miniature cartridge geometry.) This compact physical footprint allows panel builders to deploy dense protection layout arrangements using standard 5mm DIN rail fuse holders, inline wire clips, or panel-mount twist-caps.
- Built with a premium, crystal-clear glass tube housing and high-conductivity nickel-plated brass endcaps, this device allows maintenance technicians to perform instantaneous visual inspections. The transparent body lets you immediately verify a blown fuse condition by checking for a broken internal filament or metallic discoloration, cutting down diagnostic troubleshooting times on the factory floor.
- Meeting global environmental standards for lead-free construction. Additionally, it is UL Listed (Guide JDYX2, File E19180) and CSA Certified (Class 1422-01, File 53787), providing machine builders with a fully certified, code-compliant safety component that smoothly passes municipal field inspections.
