0229.375HXP

Fuses have been used to protect electrical systems from damaged due to excess current for over a century. The 0229.375H XP series of fuses are some of the most commonly used fuse types, and are suitable for most applications. They employ a simple but highly effective design to provide reliable protection for electrical systems.

Applications

The 0229.375H XP series of fuses is suitable for most standard electrical applications. This includes residential, commercial, industrial and automotive protection. It is particularly suited to protecting and controlling lighting circuits in larger scale buildings, such as hospitals, schools, offices and factories. It can also be used for 1-phase and 3-phase motor protection.

Working Principle

The 0229.375H XP series fuse operates according to the basic principle of fuse technology. It consists of a metal strip or wire that is designed to melt and interrupt the flow of current when the current exceeds the pre-set level. The current also dissipates through the fuse body to provide additional protection. It is designed to detect an overload of current and then interrupt it to protect the electrical system.

The fuse is designed to function according to a mechanically controlled, heat-responsive system that triggers a circuit breaker. The heat-sensitive material is located within the fuse body and is responsible for detecting any increase in current. When the current reaches a predetermined value, the fuse melts and opens the circuit, interrupting the current and providing protection.

Technical Specifications

The 0229.375H XP series fuse has a voltage rating of 250V DC or 300V AC, and an operating frequency of 50/60Hz. It has a rated primary current of 6A, and a hold current of 4A. It is rated for a breaking capacity of up to 100kA, and is able to provide short-circuit protection. The fuse also has a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and a safety rating of IEC 60068-2-2.

Advantages

The 0229.375H XP series fuse provides reliable protection for electrical systems, and is suitable for a wide range of applications. It is able to detect an overload of current and then interrupt it to protect the system. It has a high breaking capacity and is able to provide reliable short-circuit protection. It is also easy to install and highly cost-effective.

Conclusion

The 0229.375H XP series of fuses is a reliable and effective solution for protecting electrical systems from damage due to excessive current. It is suitable for use in a range of applications, and is able to protect systems by detecting an overload and interrupting it quickly. It is also relatively easy to install and highly cost-effective.
