0MEG150.L

0MEG150.L Application Field and Working Principle

Fuses have become an integral part of many electrical and electronic systems, from aircraft to computer systems. The 0MEG150.L fuse is a highly reliable knife-blade fuse used in a variety of applications to protect equipment and wiring within a system.

The 0MEG150.L fuse is a size 608 miniature plug-in fuse with an arc and short-circuit current rating of 90 amperes. It has a maximum voltage rating of 32 volts and has been designed to be UL listed according to UL 248.15 guidelines. Its rated cycling life is 500 cycles when used at its maximum rating.

Application Field

The 0MEG150.L fuse is suitable for a wide range of applications, including those in main power distribution systems, in small aircraft, in electrical and electronics systems, in household appliances, and in equipment requiring both over-current and short-circuit protection.

This versatile, high-performance fuse can be used in any establishing, protecting, and controlling system which requires an efficient breaking capacity and good over-current protection.

Working Principle

The 0MEG150.L fuse is a two-piece assembly. It contains a long body element connected to the fuse port. This element will fuse the electrical contact and open the circuit when an unsafe current passes through it.

The 0MEG150.L fuse has a trip mechanism, which is activated when it detects an over-current condition. The mechanism is designed to open the connection within a few milliseconds, thereby interrupting the current before the cable or device it is protecting over-heats and sustains damage. During normal operation however, the 0MEG150.L will remain closed, allowing the safe passage of current.

The 0MEG150.L also has an electromechanical trip mechanism, which monitors the amperage continuously. This mechanism will cause the fuse to open if the current exceeds its rated value. The trip mechanism will also react quickly to short-circuit conditions.

In addition, the 0MEG150.L fuse is UL and C-UL listed and complies with RoHS standards. The fuse has a mechanical indicator that serves as a visual indication of a fuse\'s operation.
