5CLE1-50E

What are 5CLE1-50E fuses, and what are their application field and working principle?

5CLE1-50E fuses are fast acting type-K fuses, designed specifically as high speed, high current limiters for a variety of electrical and electronic equipment. They are commonly used in the automotive, industrial, medical, communications, and aviation industries for power protection and safety applications. The fuses are capable of interrupting high fault currents from overloads and short circuits, while at the same time allowing normal operation over wide voltage and temperature ranges.

5CLE1-50E fuses are UL-recognized type-K fuses, with a voltage rating of up to 600V AC and a current rating of up to 50A. They are constructed as a two-piece design, with a copper conductor core encased in an insulating plastic sleeve. The fuse element is attached to the core of the fuse by a pair of nickel-plated cadmium terminals.

The 5CLE1-50E fuses are designed to respond quickly to overloads and short circuits, with a time-delay of only 60 ms at 500% of the rated current. The fuse will open within its time-delay at the rated current, and at higher currents, the reaction time and cut-off current are a direct function of the overload current. This fast response time allows for rapid response to fault currents, ensuring fast and reliable power protection and safety.

In addition to their fast response time, the 5CLE1-50E fuses also provide a range of other features and benefits, including a wide operating temperature range (-55°C to +125°C) and a high inrush current rating (up to 300A). The fuse core is also hermetically sealed with an epoxy sealant, providing superior moisture and vibration resistance.

The 5CLE1-50E fuses can be used for a variety of applications, including DC power supplies, battery chargers, power inverters, medical equipment, and communications equipment. They can also be used in combination with other types of fuse to provide increased protection in specific applications, such as when used in combination with HRC fuse-links in motor start circuits.

In conclusion, 5CLE1-50E fuses are fast-acting type-K fuses providing reliable power protection and safety for a variety of applications. Their fast response time, wide operating temperature range, and hermetically sealed core provide superior protection from overloads and short-circuits, ensuring fast and reliable power protection and safety.
