Fuses

A fuse is an electrical protection device used to prevent over-currents in electrical circuits. It can be used to protect lighting, air conditioning, refrigeration, and other high-power electrical circuits from being damaged due to excessive current. Fuses have been around for over a century, and they remain a popular choice for protecting electrical systems and circuits.

0318.125VXP application field and working principle

The 0318.125VXP Fuse is a single-pole, two-element UL listed Class RK1 fuse with an ampere rating of 125 amps. It is a cost-effective solution for circuit protection in power and lighting circuits. The fuse is UL rated at 125 amps and will trip if the current exceeds its trip point. It comes with a plastic housing and has an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. Additionally, the 0318.125VXP has a voltage rating of 1000V AC, making it ideal for high-voltage applications.

The 0318.125VXP is a resettable fuse that can be reset if the over-current is cleared. It works by having two elements, a bimetallic strip and a thermal element. When current flowing through the fuse exceeds its trip point, the bimetallic strip will bend and cause the thermal element to heat up. This will trigger the fuse to open the circuit and deactivate the power supply. The fuse can then be reset and will automatically reset when the current is below its trip point.

The 0318.125VXP is suitable for a wide range of applications in industrial, commercial, and residential spaces. It is perfect for protecting motors, transformers, cables, electrical systems, power systems, lighting systems, and much more. The fuse is also suitable for high temperatures and can easily be mounted onto equipment. Its reliable construction and long-lasting durability make it an ideal choice for circuit protection.
