0034.4928

Fuses are an essential component of any electrical system designed to protect a system and its operators from electrical faults. Ultimately, fuses are designed to protect the system from catastrophic overloads and ensure safety. The 0034.4928 is a perfect example of a fuse designed to protect the components of an electrical system.

Function and Application Field

This fuse is a Slow Blow, fuse type that is used for both AC and DC circuits. It has a general application field of 500mA up to 15A with a nominal voltage of 125-250V. This fuse is specially designed to protect components from inrush currents, while providing overload and short-circuit protection. Common motors, transformers and other components are excellent applications for this type of fuse. The 0034.4928 also serves a variety of other applications, such as protecting control circuits, solenoids, RF and audio amplifiers, and various other products.

Working Principle

At its core, the 0034.4928 fuse is a thermal fuse. It is composed of two components: a metal wire and a ceramic element. The wire filament is attached to the ceramic element, which then resides within the fuse body. When the current reaches and/or exceeds the fusing current, the wire filament will heat up and begin to expand. This is when the ceramic element will start to stretch, forcing the fuse finally to open. This effectively interrupts the circuit\'s current supply and protecting the circuit from further damage.

The 0034.4928 fuse is usually used to protect circuits from surges, current overloads and/or short circuits. It offers a high degree of protection for small motors, transformers, audio and control circuits. The 0034.4928 fuse provides protection up to 125-250V with current ratings up to 15A, depending on the model.

Conclusion

The 0034.4928 is a versatile and reliable fuse. It offers protection from overcurrents, as well as surge, overload, and short-circuit protection. It can be used in a wide variety of applications, such as motors, transformers, control circuits, RF and audio amplifiers, and more. As long as it is properly rated, the 0034.4928 fuse can provide excellent protection to any system it is installed in.
