170E3582

Modern electronics require reliable source of power, and efficient flow of electricity through various components. A vital component in the power supply circuit is the fuse. Fuses are designed to protect an electrical circuit from damage due to current overload. The 170E3582 is an industrial electrical fuse that provides reliable short-circuit protection for industrial process control networks.

The 170E3582 is a standard and specialty type of fuse. It is designed to fit into 250V/1A circuits. This type of fuse is commonly used in various industrial process control equipment, such as elevators, air conditioners, and motor controllers. It is designed to provide reliable, quick acting overload protection from short circuits. The fuse features a current-limiting characteristic, allowing it to act more efficiently than traditional fuses.

The fuse has a firing rating of 500 amps. This allows it to effectively protect circuits from dangerous current overloads that could damage the circuit and create hazardous conditions to personnel. The fuse can be mounted on a standard panel and boards, or it can be mounted directly on a circuit board. This allows for easy installation into existing circuits.

The 170E3582 has a high dissipation rating, meaning it can handle higher levels of current flow than other fuses. This makes it suitable for use in circuits with a higher capacity, such as those used in motor controllers. It also offers greater protection from voltage surges, which can damage electronics. This makes the fuse ideal for use in sensitive electrical systems.

The fuse works on a principle of thermal expansion. When an overloaded circuit is activated, the heat produced from the current surge causes the metal fuse alloy to expand. This increases the contact area between the fuse and the strip, increasing the current flow. When the current reaches a certain level, the increased resistance causes the fuse to blow, breaking the circuit and protecting the components from further damage.

The 170E3582 fuse is UL-listed and meets UL-48 requirements. This makes it suitable for use in commercial buildings, industrial sites, and many other locations. It is also suitable for Navy and Coast Guard applications, due to its current-limiting and short-circuit protection characteristics. The fuse is also highly resistant to vibration, making it suitable for use in a wide range of applications.

The 170E3582 is an efficient and reliable electrical fuse with a wide range of applications. It provides short-circuit protection and current-limiting characteristics, making it suitable for use in a variety of electronic systems. The fuse is easy to install and can be used in both industrial and commercial applications. This makes it an ideal choice for protecting sensitive electronics from current surges.
