0LEC00CBX Application Field and Working Principle

0LEC00CBX is a type of fuseholder used in industrial control, electrical equipment, telecommunication, metering and test instrumentation, etc. It can be used in any high-power application where over-current protection is needed.

Brief Introduction

The 0LEC00CBX fuseholder has two elements: contact and base. The contact is designed for Low temperature coefficient fuse with a maximum current rating of 80 Amps. The contact is a spring-loaded, low thermal resistance contact, and the base is a plastic base. The contact is connected to the base via a locking slideway feature, the screw thread. It is easier to fix and secure, ensuring a reliable connection when the fuse is inserted.

Advantages of 0LEC00CBX

• Lead-free body material for better safety;
• High impact ABS UL 94 V-0 body material – clear lid;
• High temperature resistance, temperature range from -55ºC to 125ºC;
• Compact design to save space.

Working Principle of 0LEC00CBX

When an over-current condition occurs, 0LEC00CBX fuseholder will act to protect the circuit. Normally this occurs because a fault or bad connection has allowed too much current to pass through a circuit. When this happens, the fuseholder will open the circuit, breaking the current and preventing any damage to the components. The fuseholder allows the current to flow until it reaches the specified maximum current and will then open the circuit.

The contact of the fuseholder is made of high-temperature metal material that can withstand high levels of current. The base contains plastic materials that act as supports to the contact, and that facilitates an uninterrupted electrical connection. In addition, its built-in insulation cuts off any stray current that may potentially enter the circuit.

Conclusion

The 0LEC00CBX fuseholder is a reliable and economical solution for industrial control, electrical equipment, telecommunication, metering, and test instrumentation applications. It offers a quick and easy way to secure a reliable connection between the fuse and the circuit. It is very durable and can withstand high levels of current, ensuring that the circuit is adequately protected.
