PTC Resettable Fuses

PTC Resettable Fuses are a type of overcurrent protective device used for protecting electronic circuit from overcurrent and short circuits.They are used in a wide range of electronic applications, such as home appliances, consumer electronics, industrial equipment, and medical equipment.The 1812L260/16MR is a type of PTC resettable fuse, and is suitable for a variety of applications.

Application Field

The 1812L260/16MR fuse is designed for applications where high amperage and high surge are present, such as in consumer electronics, motor control, industrial, and medical equipment.It is a small form factor and provides a high power density, which makes it suitable for space-sensitive applications.It is designed to protect circuits against overcurrent and short circuit events without the need for a manual reset at the overload point.In addition, it is UL listed and RoHS compliant.This makes it suitable for use in applications where safety and reliability are essential.

Working Principle

The 1812L260/16MR is a thermal fuse. It consists of a PTC (+) element and a metal contact (-).When the current exceeds the rated value, the temperature of the PTC element increases, and the PTC element expands rapidly.This causes a physical displacement of the contacts, thus breaking the circuit connection and renders the device non-functional.Once the device is cooled down, the contacts return to their original position, and the device is automatically reset and the circuit is re-established.It is important to note that the device is designed to reset and remain functional after the fault is cleared.It is not designed to clear or prevent faults.

Advantages

The 1812L260/16MR PTC resettable fuse provides a number of advantages over traditional fuses, including:

• High amperage, high surge rating
• Small form factor, high power density
• Automatic reset and remain functional after fault is cleared
• UL listed and RoHS compliant

Conclusion

The 1812L260/16MR is a PTC resettable fuse designed for protection of circuits against overcurrent and short circuit events.It offers a number of advantages over traditional fuses, including: high amperage, high surge rating, small form factor, high power density, and automatic reset after the fault is cleared.In addition, it is UL listed and RoHS compliant, making it suitable for applications where safety and reliability are essential.The 1812L260/16MR offers an economical solution for protecting circuits, and is easy to install.
