0273.050H Application Field and Working Principle

The 0273.050H is a type of expendable fuse consisting of an insulated, coiled copper wire and a contact at either end, usually made of brass and aluminous. Fuses act as a safety device, protecting against overloads and short-circuits. They are available in various sizes and materials and are used in a variety of applications.

Features and Benefits

• Fast-acting, reliable protection from overloads and short-circuits
• Low resistance for a fast-release time
• Available in various sizes and materials
• Can be used in a variety of applications

Applications

The 0273.050H is suitable for use in automotive, bus, truck, agricultural, and construction equipment applications. It also is suitable for use as a power fuse in industrial and commercial power systems. It may be used in low-voltage general-purpose power distribution systems and low-voltage industrial control systems.

Working Principle

When the flow of current through the 0273.050H fuse exceeds its rated current, the heat generated by the resistance of the copper wire melts the contact material at either end. The resulting action causes an interruption in the flow of current, thereby protecting the system from overloads. When the overload is removed, the fuse will reset itself and can be used again.

Conclusion

The 0273.050H fast-acting fuse is suitable for use in a variety of applications, providing reliable protection from overloads and short-circuits. It is available in various sizes and materials, making it suitable for a range of applications. Its fast-release time ensures that it can provide effective protection.
