KLKR004.TS Application Field and Working Principle

KLKR004.TS is a special type of fuse that is used in several applications for electrical protection. It is a glass body type fuse that is commonly used in low-voltage AC and DC circuit applications, with capabilities up to 600 volts. It is an effective and reliable solution for protecting electrical systems from high currents and voltages.

It has a ceramic body that is glass-filled and comes with silver-plated copper alloy terminals. The terminals are soldered to the ceramic body and provide high electrical conductivity, as well as providing exceptional mechanical strength. The fuse element is crimped onto the terminals and surrounded by the body. The fuse element is made from copper and plated with silver.

This fuse has a heat-activated triggering mechanism that is designed to open the circuit before the current overloads the fuse element. The heat-activated trigger is connected to a bimetallic strip inside the fuse. As the current through the fuse increases, the bimetallic strip expands due to heat and causes the trigger to open. This cuts off the current, thus protecting the circuit. The heat-activated trigger can also be reset manually in the event of a power surge.

In addition to the heat-activated trigger, this fuse also contains a sensing loop and a shunt that are used to detect if there is an overload. The sensing loop is connected to the terminals and operates by detecting changes in the current. If the current increases beyond the rated value, the sensing loop will detect this and activate the fuse’s heat-activated trigger to open the circuit.

The shunt is used to prevent the fuse from being overloaded. The shunt is in parallel with the fuse, and if the current through the fuse increases to a point that exceeds the fuse’s rating, the shunt will open and the fuse will not be damaged.

KLKR004.TS fuses are designed to protect a range of appliances that require protection from electrical surges and overloads. It is commonly used in air conditioners, washing machines, dishwashers, fans, and other electrical equipment. It is also suitable for use in solar, wind, and hydro power applications, and is also recommended for automotive applications.

KLKR004.TS is a reliable and effective way to protect electrical systems and components from damage. It is also easy to install and maintain, making it an excellent choice for electrical protection needs.
