0256012.M

Fuses are electrical safety devices that protect circuits from overcurrent, excessive temperatures, and in some cases, voltage transients. Fuses are generally found in most commercial and industrial wiring/circuit applications, and can be found in home wiring applications as well. 0256012.M are one of the many types of fuses used in this field, and they have very specific characteristics and working principles that make them stand out from other fuses.

The 0256012.M is a miniature fuse based on a metallized polyester film substrate, with silver plated copper-capped ends. The capsule size is 2.0mm x 5.6mm, making it a much smaller, more repeatable, and more economical form factor for applications where size is an issue. The 0256012.M has a rated current of 1.25A, and is rated at 250VAC. It has a UL-recognized and CSA certified current-limiting characteristic, which makes it ideal for protecting electronic equipment from damage due to high temperatures or overcurrents.

The 0256012.M fuse is designed to provide a fast response to overcurrent conditions by way of a thin-film, metal oxide coating on the internal parts of the metal oxide film. The film melts in the event of an overcurrent, breaking the circuit and protecting it from further harm. The thin-film design also helps minimize errant arcing and reduces the risk of ignition in hazardous environments.

The 0256012.M fuse is designed to provide three levels of fuse performance depending on the magnitude of the current. It has a rated interrupting capacity of 600VAC at 0.25A, 250VAC at 1.25A, and 125VAC at 2.5A. This protects the fuse from being overwhelmed by too much current, and allows it to safely protect the circuit without risking arching or other electrical dangers.

The 0256012.M fuse is also designed for applications with current overloads of short duration. This allows it to be used in circuits that require fast recovery from overcurrents, such as motor control circuits or those used in industrial automation. Another application for the 0256012.M is in audio electronics, where a fast response is required to protect from damaging power surges.

The 0256012.M is a small but powerful fuse, and one that can be trusted to keep your circuits safe from overcurrents, temperatures, and voltage transients. It is a reliable and cost-effective solution for commercial, industrial, and even home wiring and circuit applications. With its UL-recognized and CSA-certified current-limiting characteristics, the 0256012.M is the perfect choice for protecting your valuable electronic equipment.
