0FLQ008.HXR

Fuses are important electrical safety components used to protect circuits and equipment from overload conditions. 0FLQ008.HXR is a common fuse model produced by Cooper Bussmann. It functions primarily to prevent short circuits from developing and distributing damaging current levels within the electrical circuit.

The Cooper Bussmann 0FLQ008.HXR fuse is designed for use in a wide range of applications, including industrial, commercial and residential applications. They provide superior protection to several kinds of electrical devices, such a motors, switches, transformers and other switchgear. It is suitable for use in AC circuits up to 600 volts, and DC circuits up to 250 volts.

The 0FLQ008.HXR has a current rating of 8 amperes, and its interrupting rating is 10,000 amperes. It is UL Classified and CSA Listed to UL 248. It is also RoHS Compliant, and it is available in a cartridge style with a padlockable holder. This fuse uses a time-delay feature in order to provide effective protection in many types of over-current applications. It also features an anti-theft design to help to protect against intentional tampering.

The working principle of the 0FLQ008.HXR is as follows. When the continuous current in the circuit exceeds the rated current, the temperature of the bimetallic strip gradually rises and causes the strip to deform. When the deformation reaches a certain level, the ends of the strips come into contact to form an electrical bridge, thus turning off the circuit and protecting the electrical component.

The 0FLQ008.HXR is a very durable and reliable fuse that can provide reliable protection in a wide range of applications. It is a time-delay fuse, so it allows for slight overloads without immediately tripping. This feature allows it to reliably protect the circuit without having the nuisance of frequently tripping.

The Cooper Bussmann 0FLQ008.HXR fuse is a very reliable and effective piece of electrical safety gear, which makes it an ideal choice for many applications. It can be used to provide protection for electric motors, transformers, switches, and other equipment in both AC and DC circuits. Its time-delay feature helps to prevent nuisance tripping, while its anti-theft design helps to protect against intentional tampering.
