0481002.VXP Application Field and Working Principle

0481002.VXP is a multi-ampere fuse manufactured by Littelfuse, Inc., a leading player in the global market for electrical fuses and components. The product is primarily used in specialty applications such as lighting systems, heating and ventilation systems, automated conveyor systems, and automated assembly lines. It can also be used in mission-critical applications such as fire detection and emergency systems, medical equipment, and aerospace systems.

The 0481002.VXP is a cutting-edge multi-ampere fuse, providing superior protection over standard fuses by providing higher current ratings than standard fuses. Its superior rated current is made possible by its superior construction materials and the embedded safety features.

The 0481002.VXP is composed of two distinct parts, the body and the elements. The body of the fuse is composed of a conductive material, typically a copper-based alloy, that is designed to withstand high current and not corrode. The elements of the fuse are composed of a copper strip and a fuse wire, which acts as an ohmic resistance to the electrical current running through the fuse. This ohmic resistance is designed to self-regulate the current, providing protection by limiting the current flowing through the fuse.

When the current exceeds the rated amperage of the fuse, the fuse wire begins to heat up due to I²R loss from the ohmic resistance of the fuse wire. This increase in temperature causes the copper strip to expand, thus breaking the electrical connection and interrupting the current. The fuse wire then melts, creating a permanent open circuit.

As a specialty fuse, the 0481002.VXP offers a number of advantages over standard fuses. Its higher current ratings are ideal for demanding applications, and its superior construction materials and embedded safety features ensure reliable performance and superior protection. The 0481002.VXP is an ideal choice for mission-critical applications such as aerospace systems, fire detection and emergency systems, and medical equipment.
