0313002.MXP

Fuses are an important element of electrical engineering, and a great many varieties exist. The 0313002.MXP type belongs to the Moving Contact fuse series, and is designed for applications that require onboard switching capability without the need for de-energization. It is commonly used in vehicle starter systems and fluid control systems.The fuse itself is composed of a cylindrical container, in which the components are contained - housing, connection cups and contacts. Generally, these fuses are compact in size and not affected by vibration or environmental conditions such as temperature, altitude or dust. They are made up of a metal strip insulated from the outer casing and the contact cups. The two contact cups are connected to the outer casing by a spring-loaded contact. The contact then passes through the metal strip, which serves as an electrical connection between the two contact cups and the outer casing.The working principle of the 0313002.MXP type fuse is quite simple. When the load current exceeds the rated value, the heat generated in the contact due to the high current causes the contact to open. This causes an instantaneous interruption of the current, thus protecting the circuit from overcurrent damage. This fuse is also designed to open in the event of a short circuit, thus preventing equipment and personnel from being injured.In addition to the protection mentioned above, this type of fuse can also provide onboard switching capabilities in certain applications. The spring-loaded contact will move in response to changes in the load current, effectively switching the contact from one load to another. This provides a straightforward method of load switching without the need to de-energize the circuit.Overall, the 0313002.MXP type fuses provide reliable overcurrent protection and an effective method of on-board switching and rerouting of current in certain applications. The contact design is also robust yet compact, making it particularly useful in tight spaces and applications where vibration and dust are likely to be present.
