PTC Resettable Fuses are an important part of safety devices which provide protection against electrical overloads and short-circuits. As such, they can be found in many industries, particularly in those involving hazardous or sensitive operations, or any environmental conditions where the safety of people or equipment is paramount. The RXE160 is a model of PTC Resettable Fuse which is widely used in many industries due to its strong protection characteristics and reliability.

The RXE160 is a radial leaded self-resetting thermistor fuse. It consists of a coil of copper wire wrapped around a ceramic core, with two legs of equal length extending from one end. When a fault occurs and the current exceeds the rated value, the wire grows hot enough to cause it to expand and contact the core, which in turn causes a short and triggers the fuse. The current is then reduced to a safe level and the thermistor cools down, restoring the coil to its original shape. The design of this type of fuse makes it suitable for high current overloads, as it can tolerate short-term overloads without damage to the components.

The main application of the RXE160 is in circuit breakers, where it is used to protect circuits from overloading or short-circuiting. It is also used in transformers, inverters, motors and other electrical equipment to protect against overloads or short-circuits. In addition, it can be used in data centers, medical equipment and industrial machinery, to provide protection from overloads, short-circuits and ground faults. All of these applications rely on the RXE160’s ability to reset quickly and provide reliable and consistent protection.

The working principle of the RXE160 is based upon its resistance behaviour. As the current through it increases, its resistance rises too, until it eventually moves the coil into contact with the core and triggers the fuse. This process is reversed when the current is reduced, and the coil returns to its original shape. In addition, the RXE160 has a low voltage drop compared to other types of fuses, making it energy efficient. Furthermore, it has a high surge current capability, meaning it can withstand brief high currents without damage.

The RXE160 is a robust and reliable PTC Resettable Fuse that offers reliable protection against overloads and short-circuits. It is highly efficient, with a low voltage drop and a high surge current capability, making it ideal for a variety of applications where safety and reliability are paramount. As such, it can be found in many industries, providing excellent protection for both people and equipment.
