067402.5MXE Datasheet/PDF067402.5MXE Cartridge Fuse is a general-purpose fuse suitable for both industrial and consumer applications. This type of fuse is typically used in AC and DC low voltage circuits for protection from over-current and short circuit. The fuse has a high interrupting rating which makes it suitable for applications that require high-level protection.
Application Field
067402.5MXE Cartridge Fuses are used in various applications such as:
- Electrical Equipments
- Motors
- Lighting systems
- Power supplies
These fuses are also used in electronics such as instruments, computers and telecommunication equipment, among other applications.
Working Principle
The 067402.5MXE Cartridge Fuse features a metal strip or filament which is designed to melt when an over-current occurs. This melts the fuse and interrupts the circuit, thereby protecting it from further damage.
The rated current of the fuse is determined by the maximum current it can safely carry without any permanent damage or sustained safety hazard. If the current exceeds the fuse rating, it will melt the fuse and open the circuit.
When the fuse has been tripped, it must be replaced with a new one before the circuit can be restored. This is to ensure that there is no risk of damage or sustained safety hazard.
