Frequently Asked Questions
What does the aR characteristic mean?
The aR (partial range) characteristic indicates the fuse is designed for semiconductor protection, providing rapid interruption of overloads and short circuits while allowing inrush currents typical of semiconductor devices.
Can this fuse be used in DC applications?
This fuse is specified for AC applications only, as indicated by the AC or DC rating. For DC applications, a fuse specifically rated for DC should be used.
How does the striker indication system work?
The striker indication system provides a visual signal when the fuse has operated, making it easier to identify blown fuses without disassembly.
Is this fuse suitable for use in high vibration environments?
The ceramic body and bolted mounting with flush ends and metric threads provide robust mechanical stability, making it suitable for many industrial environments including those with moderate vibration.
