38GFZSJD30E

The 38GFZSJD30E is an electrical fuse developed for a variety of specialty applications. Fuses are designed to protect electronic components from overheating as a result of an overload. Its purpose is to limit short circuit current while also providing fault protection. The 38GFZSJD30E has been designed specifically for this purpose.

Functional Description

The 38GFZSJD30E fuse is a radial-leaded, glass tube design with two electrodes contained within, a copper conductor and an inductor. Its core materials are made from high-grade copper, which provides superior overcurrent protection, low voltage drop, and fast operation. The fuse link is typically a silver-plated oxide-copper wire surrounded by glass-bead insulation. The electrodes are connected to the base material via ultra-high-tensile nickel-chrome alloy components.

This fuse is rated for 250 Vac/250 Vdc at 10A and has a minimum hold current of 7Amps. The 38GFZSJD30E has a typical life of 10,000 hours, with an associated maximum non-operating time of 200ms, and the maximum operating temperature of 85°C.

Types of Fuses

The 38GFZSJD30E has two types of fuse: the lined-walled type and the sleeved-type. The sleeved type is designed to protect the component from overheating and circuit overloads. It has a built-in insulating sleeve to keep the link from melting when a high-amperage current flow exceeds the amperage rating of the device. The lined-walled type has an external glass lining to provide additional protection from moisture and oxidation.

Applications

The 38GFZSJD30E can be used for a variety of specialty applications, including solar panels, home media systems, industrial computers, and high-pressure pumps. In particular, it is often used to protect equipment from electrical surges and overloads in commercial and industrial buildings, data centers, and the automotive industry. The 38GFZSJD30E is also suitable for use in lighting fixtures, security systems, and audio and video equipment.

Working Principle

The 38GFZSJD30E works by allowing a certain amount of current to flow through it. When an overload occurs, the extra current heats up the fuse link, causing it to heat up and expand, eventually breaking the current path. This stops the power flow, protecting the equipment from damage. By limiting the amount of current that can pass through, the fuse also keeps the circuit from overload, reducing the risk of short circuits or other damage.

Fuses are a vital component in electrical circuits, and the 38GFZSJD30E ensures reliable current regulation and current protection. By providing reliable and quick-acting protection, the 38GFZSJD30E can prevent costly damage to equipment and property.
