Frequently Asked Questions
What does the 'aR' characteristic mean for this fuse?
The 'aR' (partial range) characteristic means the fuse is designed to protect semiconductor devices by interrupting short-circuits rapidly while allowing harmless overload currents to pass without blowing.
Can this fuse be used in DC circuits?
While rated for 300 V DC, this fuse is primarily designed for AC applications up to 250 V. Ensure your application matches the fuse's voltage and current ratings for safe operation.
How does the striker indication system work?
The striker is a mechanical indicator that visibly activates when the fuse blows, allowing quick identification of the fuse status and enabling remote signalling for maintenance efficiency.
Is this fuse RoHS compliant?
Yes, the Protistor® 17x27 aR fuse-link is RoHS compliant, meeting environmental and safety standards.
