0PAL160.X

When it comes to protection against electrical hazards, the primary device used to prevent damage to circuits and equipment is a fuse. The PAL160.X is one of the most commonly used fuses in the industry today. This type of fuse is designed for applications ranging from household appliances, automotive circuit breakers, and industrial control systems to high-power military applications. It is a low-voltage, mid-amperage fuse.

Features and Benefits

The PAL160.X fuse is designed with robust materials that provide superior protection against heat, vibrations, and shock damage. It also features a wide range of operating temperatures, allowing the fuse to function reliably in a variety of harsh environmental conditions. In addition, the PAL160.X has a very low temperature coefficient, allowing it to remain stable under a wide range of temperatures and conditions. This fuse also features a very high breaking capacity, making it ideal for applications that require reliable and fail-safe protection against current overloads.

Applications

The PAL160.X is a versatile fuse that can be used in a variety of electrical systems, including personal computers, consumer electronics, motor vehicle electronics, high power military and power plants, and more. The PAL160.X is also suitable for industrial process automation, repairs, and maintenance purposes. The PAL160.X has a load current rating of 160 amps and is UL listed for up to 240 volts.

Working Principle

The PAL160.X is a metal powder fuse that operates on the principle of thermal dispersion. The fuse is designed in such a way that when an over-current passes through the circuit, the heat generated causes the metal powder in the fuse element to expand. This expansion creates a resistance in the path of the current flow, interrupting the electrical current and protecting the circuit from damage. The PAL160.X features a resettable fuse disk that automatically cuts off the current once the overload condition is no longer present. This ensures a safe and reliable operation of the device.

Advantages

The PAL160.X is an ideal choice for applications that require superior protection against electrical hazards. The metal powder fuse features low voltage drop, helping to reduce power losses and increase the life of the device. The PAL160.X is also highly reliable and can be used in a variety of industries due to its robust design. The low temperature coefficient and high breaking capacity make the fuse ideal for applications that require reliable and fail-safe protection, while the resettable fuse disk ensures a safe and reliable operation.
