Protect your electrical components from the dangerous effects of overcurrent and short circuits with this British Standard fuse from Eaton. It instantly responds to short circuits and current overload in appliances by blowing to stop any more current from flowing to subsystems. The fuse is suitable to use in low-voltage industrial applications, such as engineering systems and automated assembly lines. It's a hard-wearing device that's resistant to ultra-violet light and weathering, so offers an extended service life. It needs no maintenance and, for easy use, is quick to replace if it blows. Brackets on either end of this tagged fuse make it simple to bolt onto a holder for quick and uncomplicated installation.
• High-rupture capacity (HRC) that's able to stop both high overcurrent and low voltage faults • Compact size that needs minimal space with dimensions of 110 (L) x 47 (H) x 31mm (D)
What materials is a high-rupturing fuse made from?
A high-rupturing fuse like this one features metal end caps and a body made from heat-resistant material. It features a silver current-carrying element and a body packed with a cooling medium, like chalk, quartz or marble which absorbs the heat produced by normal current.
