Miniature and sub-miniature fuses

9 April 2003 Circuit & System Protection

ELU offers a wide range of 5x20 mm and 6x32 mm glass and ceramic fuses with international approvals such as SEMKO, VDE, SEV, BEAB, IMQ, UL and CSA. The company also has fuseholders for many different applications.

ELU sub-miniature (IEC 127-3-3 and IEC 127-3-4) fuses, for use at rated voltages of 250 V have a rupturing capacity of 35 A a.c. or 10 X In. The small housing (8,4 mm diameter) has two radial terminations (pin spacing 5,8 mm) for direct soldering to PCBs, alternatively they may be used with a socket type 166602 for ease of fuse replacement.

This component is available in F, M and T versions approved by SEMKO and VDE. A special design is UL and CSA (125 V) approved. Rupturing capacity is 50 A. Three versions meet all customer's requirements - short terminations (4,3 mm), long terminations (18,8 mm) and long terminations on tape/ammopack for automatic insertion.

Important advantages are: smallest dimension for 250 V; direct soldering to PCBs; suitable for socket connection; available on tape for automatic insertion; approved by SEMKO/VDE and UL/CSA.
