0481004.H

The 0481004.H is a type of specialty fuse. It is a thermal-magnetic type of fuse designed to protect any over-burning loads in electrical circuits. It is a multi-pole model designed for especially important short-circuit and overload protection, and is mostly used in industrial applications as the main disconnecting device.

The 0481004.H is an important and versatile type of fuse that harnesses a dual action trip mechanism. As opposed to other fuses, this type of fuse uses a thermo-magnetic element, or a type of magnetic-thermal bimetal trip device, to dissipate energy in two phases. This provides superior protection against overloading, short circuits, as well as other abnormal instability.

The 0481004.H has numerous applications in different parts of industry, ranging from electrical systems, and heating and air conditioning (HVAC) technology, to mining and petroleum industries. Its efficient performance and reliable protection have made such fuses highly sought-after in many places.

The 0481004.H works by using it’s built-in bimetal strip. This bimetal strip is made up of two strips fused together, one made from copper and the other of a heat-conductive alloy. This strip acts like a spring that can be easily bent and twisted. The strip is connected to the fuse holder, which makes it sensitive to the current flowing in the circuit. When operating under normal electrical loads, the bimetal strip acts as an insulator, preventing current to flow. However, as soon as the current flow in the circuit reaches a certain limit, the bimetal strip will heat up and bend due to Joule effect, allowing the current to flow through. This heats up the nearby bimetallic strip further, thus initiating the second phase of tripping action. A bimetal strip is also connected to a plunger in reducing the flow of current. This provides yet another level of protection against overload.

In the event of a short circuit, the bimetal strip will quickly heat up and bend due to the large current flowing through it. This in turn causes the plunger to move, reducing the current flow and protecting the fuse from overheating and damaging itself or the protected load. This action is known as the thermal-magnetic action of the 0481004.H.

Overall, the 0481004.H’s specialty fuse is a reliable and efficient form of protection for industrial applications. Its thermal-magnetic action provides superior protection against overload and short circuits, as well as other abnormal instability. Furthermore, its ability to regulate abnormal current in the circuit make it an indispensable device in numerous places.
