0678H3150-02 Circuit Protection

Fuses are an important form of electrical component used to protect circuit devices, the 0678H3150-02 which is a member of the Fuses family is no exception. The 0678H3150-02 offers various characteristics, capabilities and performance advantages that make it ideally suited for a range of applications. This article will discuss the main applications and working principles of the 0678H3150-02.

The 0678H3150-02 is a fast acting fuse that has a current rating of 3A and a breaking capacity of 118A. It has an ultra-fast striking time of less than 10 microseconds, making it ideal for applications requiring over-current protection that can respond quickly to power surges or unexpected power outages. Additionally, the 0678H3150-02 has an operating temperature range of -25 to +45°C and is approved to UL/EN/IEC 60269-1, making it a versatile component that can be installed in both indoor and outdoor applications.

The 0678H3150-02 fuse is most commonly used in power supplies, power monitoring systems, solar systems and uninterruptible power supply systems. These are all applications where an instantaneous level of response is required in order to protect connected components. The fuse’s low impedance and quick response time ensure that any over-currents or spikes are immediately detected and the fuse trips before they reach dangerous levels. Additionally, the fuse is often used to protect power distribution circuits and cable testers, which are applications where an undesired short-circuit could cause serious damage to the equipment.

The 0678H3150-02 operates on the principle of a fuse element that has a predetermined breaking capacity. When the current rises above this level, an ultra-fast arc is created that causes the element to open and disconnect the circuit. As the fuse trips, it produces a sound that can be heard if desired. As the reaction time of the fuse is so fast, the current surge is caught before it reaches a level where it can cause any damage to the equipment or components connected to the fuse.

In conclusion, the 0678H3150-02 is a member of the Fuses family that has many benefits over other fuses. It is a fast acting fuse, with a breaking capacity of 118A and an ultra-fast striking time of less than 10 microseconds. This makes it suitable for applications where an instantaneous response is required to protect connected components. The 0678H3150-02 is approved to UL/EN/IEC 60269-1, allowing it to be used safely in both indoor and outdoor environments. It operates on the principle of a fuse element that has a predetermined breaking capacity, and when the current rises above this level, the element produces an ultra-fast arc that immediately disconnects the circuit.
