GMC-400MA

Fuses are a type of electrical component used to protect an electrical circuit. The GMC-400MA is a current limiting class RK5 ferrule fuse designed for short-circuit and overload protection in constrained-space circuits. This fuse is popular in industrial, commercial, and residential applications, and has a wide range of features to ensure it is suited for a variety of environments and applications.The GMC-400MA is designed for a range of AC voltages between 50 and 600 volts and is UL listed and CSA approved. The body is made from high-temperature porcelain and the terminals are made from ground and tinned copper. The contacts are silver plated and the fuse is DIN rail or screw-mountable. It is resistant to shock, vibration, and environmental conditions, and can be installed in tight spaces.The GMC-400MA is a current limiting fuse. It limits circuit current during a short circuit or overload, reducing peak let-through current, reducing system damage, and protecting downstream components. The fuse provides fast response time and excellent protection for short-circuit, overload, and thermal fuse applications. The rated current for the GMC-400MA is 400 amps and the minimum melting I2t is 1250 amps, providing an ideal short-circuit protection.The GMC-400MA is well-suited for a range of industrial and commercial applications. It is commonly used in power distribution, motor control, battery backup, and other circuits where short-circuit and overload protection is required. Its compatibility with various circuit designs and systems make it an ideal fuse for many systems. The GMC-400MA can also be used to provide diagnostic information during a fault, allowing technicians to quickly and accurately diagnose faults.The GMC-400MA is rated as an interrupting class RK5 fuse, meaning it can be used in circuits with protected voltage levels of 600V ac or less. This fuse is also rated for a typical interrupting rating of 200kA and a withstand rating of 100kA. This makes it ideal for applications that require quick interruption of normal and fault currents to avoid extensive system damage.In conclusion, the GMC-400MA is a reliable, efficient, and cost-effective current limiting ferrule fuse designed for short-circuit and overload protection in constrained-space circuits. It offers a range of features to suit a variety of applications, excellent current limiting performance, quick fault detection and diagnostic capabilities, and a high interrupting rating for reliable performance.
