0481.375HXL

The 0481.375HXL is a high-performance specially designed fuse for power systems. It is a high-speed single-pole fuse and is rated for overcurrent and thermal protection of medium-voltage equipment and circuits. The 0481.375HXL can also be used for fault current limitation.

The 0481.375HXL is composed of an arc chute, a thermal element, and a fuse link. The arc chute is a metal chamber that houses the fuse link and which contains the arc created when the fuse operates. The arc is extinguished by a combination of the quenching effects of the arc chamber and a thermally actuated element. The thermal element senses the rate of energy absorption, and causes the fuse to open when the current associated with a fault exceeds the thermal element’s prescribed limits.

The 0481.375HXL is designed to be used in a variety of electrical and industrial applications including: overcurrent protection of motors, circuitable components, transmission and distribution systems, control circuits, and other applications requiring overcurrent protection.

The 0481.375HXL offers a number of advantages over traditional fuses. It provides a more responsive response to fault current, with a response time of less than 25 cycles. It also has a higher current rating than the traditional fuse, with a current rating of up to 31,250 amperes. It is also more durable, with an expected service life of up to 50,000 electrical cycles and a DC voltage rating of up to 5.75kV.

The 0481.375HXL also offers a number of safety features. It is UL2586 listed for use in hazardous locations, and is also rated for short-circuit and overload current. The 0481.375HXL is equipped with a special thermal cycling system designed to minimize the risk of thermal runaway. It is also designed to withstand surges and lightning strikes.

The 0481.375HXL is an ideal choice for a variety of high-performance fuse applications, particularly those requiring fast current interruption and high surge and overcurrent protection. It is an ideal solution for a wide range of applications including motor protection, industrial control, distribution systems, and HVAC systems.
