KLKD005.HXR

Electrical, Specialty Fuses

KLKD005.HXR fuse is a type of electrical fuse specially designed to protect low voltage circuits from undesired high voltage electric shock or short circuit surges. It is mainly used for controlling voltage in low-voltage circuits which have minimal energy dissipation.

The working principle of KLKD005.HXR fuse mainly depends on the heat developed due to the current passing through it. When the current through the fuse exceeds the amperage rating of the fuse, it causes the wire to heat up. This increased temperature subsequently causes the melting of the fuse element inside the fuse, thus interrupting the circuit and preventing burns to electrical components or people in the vicinity.

KLKD005.HXR fuse is usually used for protecting devices ranging from small motors to large industrial processes with higher amperage. Its application in a wide variety of industries such as telecommunications, automotive, industrial electronics, medical equipment, and consumer electronics makes it the ideal choice for protecting circuits from short circuit or voltage surge.

KLKD005.HXR fuse is also applied in

• Appliances with high wattage loads
• Lighting fixtures
• Equipment control circuits
• Sensitive electronics and electrical data networks

In general, if the current through the fuse exceeds its amperage rating, the fuse element melts and the fuse is deemed ‘blown’.

Therefore, it is important to choose the right type of fuse depending on the type of circuit being protected and the amperage of the circuit. Choosing the wrong type of fuse element can lead to under-protection or even over-protection, resulting in an unsafe working environment or even a compromised electrical system.

KLKD005.HXR fuse is designed to provide superior protection to low voltage circuits, and its comparatively low price and wide range of amperage makes it ideal for a variety of applications. Armed with the right knowledge about the fuse types and its rated amperage, one can confidently use this unique type of fuse to ensure a safe electricity system.
